Neah Bay.

Post by Lingking » Tue Jun 23, 2015 1:21 pm

Leaving after work on Saturday for Neah Bay. Going to fish the green can for a few days and i hear they are doing pretty good on the kings and there are humpies all over. Going to give the brads cut plug. A good try besides my go-to spoons. Anyone had any luck up there with them?

Just got back from Neah. Troll in 130 out to 200ft. (Zig-zag) Put the gear down to 90ft to target kings. Or at 45 for pinks. The pinks are BIG this year! I thought some were Coho until we got them to the boat. Cop car coho killer with red eye/glow green flasher at 90ft for Kings. (You will still hit pinks even at 90 though.) Pinks will hit anything. At one point, there were so many pinks that my fish finder screen was solid clear across. Could not even get the gear down through them.

Thanks for the report. Any guess on about how long does it usually take a humpy to travel from neah bay to Puget Sound?

probably a bit early, but it seems like things are early, so it's worth a try. What the heck, at least your out fishing, right?

Let us know how you do.
