Just found this site and thought I'd try a report. Recently moved to Washington and am trying to figure out salmon fishing. I have a 19' hewescraft jet with downriggers, kicker motor and most everything else. Went out of Boston Harbor and fished the cooper point to south squaxin island and back to Dana's passage area last week. Used downriggers with flashers/herring or flashers/hoochies from 30 -100'. Have never managed to catch a salmon, but I seem to have the dogfish fishing pretty well figured out. When your desperate, even the little sharks are fun for me. After a little research I think maybe to deep for coho and will try shallower this week. Any advise or tips would be greatly appreciated for this novice. Especially tips on fishing the tide change. I mainly fish out of Arcadia Point or Boston Harbor. Thanks for any info and glad to hear somebody's catching fish.
