Well, by the time you read this, Jonathan, Mike and I will be well entrenched on the Grande Ronde. We will be gone pretty much for the month. I will be sending updates to my wife, and fishing reports.


As we left the North Sound waters.

Wow! Silvers are really hitting the beaches now, lower rivers too. Try and pink/white or a flor. green/white Clouser minnow......but keep them small.

Stilly steelhead is very consistent. Flies et al, are pretty much the same. Small and drab. SRC are in the tribs and holding off the mouths. Very fine year for them. Watch for the SRC to get on the hatches......they don't all eat spiders.

Skagit has a ton of Silvers now. Dollies are pretty much up in the tribs. Watch for them to come bailing out, just before Thanksgiving.

Now that was a good idea!
