  • Summary

  • For November 22, 2024, if you're planning to hit the waters of Puget Sound, here's what you need to know:

    ### Tidal Report
    Today's tidal conditions are relatively mild, with a high tide at around 7:30 AM and a low tide at about 2:00 PM. This transition can stir up the fish, making it a good time to cast your line.

    ### Weather
    The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of 52°F and a low of 45°F. There's a slight chance of rain, so make sure to pack your rain gear.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 7:24 AM, and sunset will be at 4:20 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to fish.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been picking up as the water temperatures cool down. Yesterday, anglers reported catching a decent number of coho and chum salmon. In Marine Area 13, South Puget Sound, several chum salmon were caught near the Kennedy Creek Mouth[3].

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Coho and chum salmon are the main catches right now. Some anglers also reported catching a few hatchery Chinook, though these are less common. In the Seattle-Bremerton area (Marine Area 10), there were reports of coho salmon being caught, albeit in smaller numbers[3].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For coho and chum salmon, using lures like spoons (especially the Luhr-Jensen Krocodile) and plugs (such as the MagLip 3.5) can be very effective. Bait-wise, herring and anchovies are always good choices. If you're targeting hatchery Chinook, try using larger plugs or even fly fishing with streamers.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Kennedy Creek Mouth** in South Puget Sound (Marine Area 13) has been a hot spot for chum salmon.
    - **Point Defiance Public Ramp** in Tacoma-Vashon Island (Marine Area 11) is another good location, especially for coho salmon.

    Remember to check the latest fishing regulations and any emergency rules before you head out. The Fish Washington mobile app is a great resource for this information[1]. Enjoy your day on the water
