Puget Sound Fishing Forecast: Coho Salmon Bite Heats Up as Temperatures Cool

  • Summary

  • As of November 10, 2024, the fishing scene in Puget Sound, particularly around the Seattle area, is looking promising with the cooler weather setting in. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Weather and Tides
    Today, you can expect partly cloudy skies with a high of around 52°F and a low of 45°F. The winds will be moderate, blowing at about 10 mph. For tidal conditions, the high tide is at 7:44 AM with a height of 12.8 feet, and the low tide is at 2:15 PM with a height of 3.3 feet. Sunrise is at 7:00 AM, and sunset will be at 4:30 PM.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been picking up as the water temperatures decrease. Coho salmon are particularly active this time of year, and the forecasts indicate a strong run for 2024[4].

    ### Catch Reports
    From the creel reports, it appears that coho salmon were the main catch in the Seattle-Bremerton area. At the Shilshole Public Ramp, for example, anglers caught 7 coho salmon yesterday[1]. In Marine Areas 10 and 11, which include the Seattle-Bremerton area, coho salmon fishing remains open through November 15[2].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For coho salmon, using lures like spoons, especially those with a silver or copper finish, can be very effective. Jigs tipped with herring or anchovies are also popular choices. If you prefer bait, live or cut herring and anchovies are excellent options.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Shilshole Public Ramp**: Located in the Seattle-Bremerton area, this ramp has seen a good number of coho catches recently.
    - **Armeni Public Ramp**: Another spot in the same area, it offers access to waters known for coho and occasionally other salmon species.

    Make sure to check the latest fishing regulations and emergency rules before you head out, and always be prepared with the right gear and safety equipment. Enjoy your day on the water
