Small small herring under a float up in shallow water.
Find the chum and they'll take that pretty good...

they also strike on big spinners like a vibrax. Bright and gaudy!
Give a man a fish and you fill his belly. Teach a man to fish and there goes the yard!

Just a little N. of ballard. More like Nov. if I recall. They will swimming around before heading up the creek. You are in Seattle I see, so prob. know the area... obviously you can't fish the creek itself, but all along the shore near the mouth is good.

The population has increased quite a bit, i had the numbers last year but can't recall now. I catch and release so I am not worried about the population. Last year I would go down into the park at like 11:00 pm at night with my kids,,, pitch black woods,, you could hear them tearing up through the creek. It sounded like a pack of dogs. Dead ones spawned out lying everywhere. It definetly is more than a couple hundred these days.

Most were in the back but about 1/3 were in the mouth. Saturday was slow, a few here and there but not many for shore fisherman. If you want bright chums then your already too late, even though the peak of the run is still a ways off. My Fishing Pic's http://s221.photobucket.com/albums/dd102/derrick_k/?albumview=grid

i was there saturday too 8-4pm...we slayed them between the three of us. probably about 11 a piece, ended up only keeping two of them between all of us. it was disturbing to see one boat out there just raking fish, not flossing, RAKING...not only were they using treble hooks in saltwater but they were even inside the boundaries where boats are not supposed to be! they kept a lot of fish and none of them were in the mouth...its sad especially when you can catch these fish the proper way. anyway, if you're in a boat, you need a good anchor because the wind picked up and our 10lb anchor could not keep us still since there is practically nothing for it to grab onto. all the fish were 12-16lb range, lot of fun, everyone was catching fish. oh, and there was a guy in a float tube right in the middle of where all the fish were schooling...he was just in the way to say the least. haha, sorry that was a lot to say...lol

Thats why I hate fishing the Skok.I hate seeing all that illegal fishing.It p__sses me off.Funny thing is theres a warden there once a month maybe.I heard the Skok was putting out some serious fish.
When youre up to your rear end in alligators,its hard to remember that the initial plan was to drain the swamp.
