Coho Surge in Puget Sound: A Promising Fishing Day on November 16th

  • Summary

  • For November 16th, fishing in the Puget Sound is looking highly promising, especially around the Seattle area. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Conditions
    The tidal report shows a high tide at around 9:30 AM with a height of about 12 feet, and a low tide at 3:30 PM with a height of approximately 3 feet. These tidal changes can stir up the fish, making them more active. The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of 62°F and a low of 50°F, and light winds of around 5 mph, making for a comfortable fishing day. Sunrise is at 7:21 AM, and sunset is at 6:23 PM, giving you ample daylight to fish.

    ### Fish Activity
    The coho salmon surge in Puget Sound is in full swing. Anglers reported a significant number of coho catches yesterday, particularly in areas like the Seattle-Bremerton area and Admiralty Inlet. Coho salmon are the main target this time of year, with many fish moving into freshwater as the waters cool. You can also expect some summer steelhead to be active as the temperatures drop.

    ### Catches
    Yesterday, anglers at the Point Defiance Public Ramp in Marine Area 11 caught up to 53 coho salmon, with an average of about 0.47 coho per angler. In Marine Area 10, around the Seattle-Bremerton area, anglers reported catching up to 4-6 coho per boat.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For coho salmon, small spinners, jigs, and flies are highly effective. These lures mimic the natural prey that coho salmon are feeding on during this time.

    ### Hot Spots
    Some of the best places to fish include the Seattle-Bremerton area, particularly around the Shilshole Public Ramp and the Kingston Public Ramp. Admiralty Inlet is also a hot spot, as well as the Tacoma-Vashon Island area around the Point Defiance Public Ramp.

    Overall, it should be a great day for fishing in the Puget Sound, with favorable tidal conditions, active fish populations, and comfortable weather. Make sure to check the latest regulations and emergency rules before heading out.
