  • Summary

  • For November 15th, fishing in the Puget Sound is looking promising, especially with the cooler weather and changing tides. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Weather and Tides
    Today, expect partly cloudy skies with a high of around 52 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 45 degrees. The sunrise is at 7:14 AM, and the sunset will be at 4:28 PM. Tides are favorable, with a high tide at 8:44 AM and a low tide at 2:34 PM, making the changing tides ideal for salmon fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw decent catches across various areas of the Puget Sound. In Marine Area 10, which includes the Seattle-Bremerton area, anglers reported catching some coho salmon, although the numbers were not exceptionally high. In Marine Area 11, covering the Tacoma-Vashon Island region, there were reports of a few coho and chum salmon caught[2][3].

    ### Catch Reports
    At the Kingston Public Ramp in Marine Area 10, anglers caught one coho salmon. The Point Defiance Public Ramp in Marine Area 11 saw no significant catches, but nearby areas like the Kennedy Creek Mouth in Marine Area 13 reported eight chum salmon caught[2].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For coho and chum salmon, using hoochies or spoons in pink or purple colors can be effective. Baiting with anchovies or herring is also a good strategy. For those targeting hatchery Chinook in South Puget Sound, try using plugs or spinners.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Kennedy Creek Mouth** in Marine Area 13 has been producing a decent number of chum salmon.
    - **Kingston Public Ramp** in Marine Area 10 is a good spot for coho salmon.

    Remember to check the latest fishing regulations and emergency rules before you head out, as they can change. With the cooler weather and favorable tides, today should be a good day to get out on the water and catch some fish.
