Puget Sound Fishing Forecast: Cooler Weather, Changing Tides Bring Promising Salmon Action

  • Summary

  • For November 14th, fishing in the Puget Sound is looking promising, especially with the cooler weather and changing tides. Here’s what you need to know:

    ### Tidal and Weather Conditions
    Today, the sunrise is at 7:00 AM and sunset at 4:24 PM. Tides are moderate, with a high tide at 10:14 AM and a low tide at 3:44 PM. The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of 52°F and a low of 43°F, making it a comfortable day to be out on the water.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been good, particularly for coho and chum salmon. According to recent reports, many rivers and marine areas around the Puget Sound are seeing active salmon runs. For example, Marine Area 13 in South Puget Sound is open for hatchery Chinook and coho salmon, and anglers have been successful in areas like Pt Gibson and the Nisqually area[3][5].

    ### Catch Reports
    Yesterday, anglers reported catching several coho and chum salmon. At Pt Gibson, one angler caught a nice coho salmon at 50 feet right at daylight using a Gibbs 4-inch Bon Chovy lure. In the Nisqually area, another angler caught a King and a Silver salmon within 15 minutes of fishing at 85 feet with the same Gibbs Bon Chovy lure[3].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    The Gibbs Bon Chovy lure has been consistently effective for catching salmon in these waters. Other successful lures include the Gibbs green glow spoon, which has worked well at various depths. For bait, using herring or anchovies can also be very effective.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Pt Gibson**: This area has been producing consistent results for coho and Chinook salmon.
    - **Nisqually Area**: Known for quick limits of King and Silver salmon, especially during the early morning hours.

    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
