Great morning on the Skagit. Fished off my island just down river from Rasar State Park. Kept three nice bucks, the biggest being around 6 1/2 pounds, about 24 inches. All the fish put up pretty good fights. Must've lost 4 and C & R'd three others. Saw a guy flyfishing just down from me but he didn't seem to be getting anything, could be wrong as it was hard to see him very well.

I have a buddy that lives off Cape Horn and I have been camped out at his place. I was fly fishing and saw a few guys up river from me. I did end up C&Rn 5 pinks and one Dolly. It was a good morning to be out, perfect overcast weather too!

I believe you can not retain pink salmon up that far until Sept 1

RichieRich ; My WDFW fish book says August 16. I'm fishing the waters listed as Gilligan Creek to the Dalles Bridge in Concrete.

Duncan; Maybe it was you I saw just downriver fly fishing, were you wearing reddish or orange colored waders? Yes, the weather was perfect and it sounds like we've got a little rain headed our way, should make the fishing even better.
