Are you trolling with this lure or just casting and retrieving? I've only fished the Duwamish once, which was 9/1/11 and I loved the pink action. Would try more but not sure of the set-ups. I fished the river across the street from Boeing Field.

And your littler one there looks impressively excited for holding a fish :-) Hopefully she'll be catching them in a couple years. Dang starting to see coho in reports, may need to do an islandbass 15 minute recon show just to look see on the Duw. Thanx for the report and pics!
