Puget Sound Fishing Report: Chinook, Chum, and Steelhead Bites Heating Up, Tides Primed for Action
Published 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure with your Puget Sound fishing report for Sunday morning. Weather's classic PNW—light rain tapering off, south winds 10-15 knots easing up, waves under 2 feet per the National Weather Service marine forecast. Sunshine might peek through later with temps pushing upper 50s around the Sound, says FOX 13 Seattle. Sunrise was about 7:20 AM, sunset around 5:30 PM.
Tides in Seattle today: low at 1:54 AM (3.94 ft), high 8:18 AM (11.77 ft), low 3:06 PM, high 9:28 PM per NOAA. Prime fishing windows hit 9-11 AM lunar transit and evening moon down—fish'll be feeding hard on the moves.
Action's heating up! Chinook, chum, and steelhead bites are on fire this February, per the Puget Sound Fishing Report podcast. Recent catches include perch by the dozens using bobber-and-bait rigs over weeds from Gone Fishing NW tips, lingcod prepping for May opener with live bait and hardware like Joey Pyburn demos at Seattle Boat Show seminars, and trout limits via worm trolling. Salmon in Areas 9 & 10 loving lures, lines, and those hotspots Dan Myers covers. Crabbers, note WDFW's eyeing geoduck limit cuts to one per day for '26 season.
Best lures: spoons and jigs for steelhead, downrigger setups for salmon per Outdoor Line pros. Bait kings are herring strips, worms, and crab gut for perch and bottom dwellers.
Hit Possession Bar for mixed rock lingcod structure or San Juans for salmon—tides'll make 'em chew. Stay safe out there, check WDFW regs.
