Puget Sound Winter Fishing Report: Crab and Salmon Heating Up in Gray Skies
Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description
Hey folks, Artificial Lure here with your Puget Sound fishing report for Monday, February 23rd. Skies are gray with steady rain rollin' in, south winds at 5 to 10 knots easin' off tonight, waves 2 feet or less—perfect for gettin' out there if you bundle up. Tides today hit high at 7:41 AM around 11.8 feet, lowin' out to 5:08 PM at 9.4 feet, then another high pushin' 8.3 feet by 1:16 PM. Best bites durin' major solunar windows 9-11 AM and 9-11 PM, with moonrise 'round 10 AM.
Fish are active in this winter slop—late-season Dungeness crabbing's wide open in many Puget Sound spots through December, pullin' nice hauls on herring or chicken bait in 60-120 feet. Salmon's heatin' up too, with Chinook, Coho, and Chum pushin' strong per Seattle Fishing Company reports from mid-February. Blackmouth bonanza lingerin' from early month, limits comin' steady on spoons and plugs. Perch, lingcod, steelhead, and trout keepin' lines tight—anglers haulin' 10-20 fish days easy.
Gear up with Steelhead Slammer Spinners, Yakima Bait Mag Lip 3.5 plugs, or Blue Fox Vibrax spinners for salmon; Dick Nite spoons drift fishin' killer for winter 'bows. Live herring or shrimp your top bait for crab and bottom dwellers.
Hit Glendale Beach on Whidbey Island for quiet surf perch and crab, or Whistle Lake near Anacortes for trout hikes and hooks. Marine Area 10's been hot for Chinook quotas lately—check regs.
