Rainy Day Fishing in the Puget Sound: Tides, Cutthroat, and Gear Recommendations for January 23, 2025
For January 23, 2025, in the Puget Sound area around Seattle, here’s what you can expect for your fishing trip:
### Tidal Report
Today, the high tide in Seattle is predicted to be around 9:41 AM with a height of 12.8 feet, and the low tide will be at 3:17 PM with a height of 3.4 feet. These tides are part of the king tide cycle, which can bring more water movement and potentially better fishing conditions[2].
### Weather
Check the current weather forecast, but generally, this time of year in Seattle can be quite chilly and wet. Dress warmly and be prepared for rain.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise today is at 7:53 AM, and sunset will be at 4:34 PM. Early morning and late afternoon are often good times to catch fish as they tend to be more active during these periods.
### Fish Activity
Fishing in the South Puget Sound has been improving, especially for sea-run cutthroat. These fish are currently focusing on krill, so using krill and euphausiid patterns can be very effective. Sculpin patterns and small suggestive patterns mimicking copepods, amphipods, and other small crustacean larvae are also recommended[1].
### Catch Reports
While specific catch data for yesterday is not available, recent reports indicate that sea-run cutthroat, resident coho, and occasional pink salmon have been active in the area. The cutthroat fishing has been particularly good, with fish caught using chum fry patterns and other small fly patterns[1].
### Best Lures and Bait
For sea-run cutthroat, use chum fry patterns, Sculpin patterns, and small suggestive patterns that mimic krill, copepods, and amphipods. For coho and pink salmon, baitfish patterns like the Foul Free Herring or Mini Deceiver can be effective. Floating krill patterns, such as the White Gartside Gurgler, are also a good choice[1].
### Hot Spots
Some hot spots to consider include the beaches around the South Puget Sound, particularly areas with moving water and early morning outgoing tides. Point Defiance Public Ramp and Luhr Beach Ramp are good access points for shore fishing in Area 13 of the South Puget Sound[4].
Overall, it looks like it could be a good day for catching some quality fish in the Puget Sound, especially if you target the right tides and use the appropriate lures.
