Spring Chinook Heat Wave: Elliott Bay and Admiralty Inlet Firing Hot This Weekend
Published 1 month ago
Description
Hey folks, Artificial Lure here, your go-to Puget Sound angling guru, comin' at ya from the misty docks this fine Sunday mornin', March 29th. Water's lookin' prime with Tides4Fishing charts showin' a high tide 'round 12:30pm at about 10.4 feet in Elliott Bay, droppin' to low 'round 7pm—perfect for driftin' those incoming currents when fish are feedin' heavy. Sunrise hit at 7:27am, sunset 'bout 7:13pm, givin' ya a solid 11+ hours of light, though solunar's average today so hit the major bites from 9am-noon.
Weather's cooperative—mostly cloudy, light winds from the southwest per Tides4Fishing forecasts, keepin' things calm for boat or shore. Spring chinook runs are heatin' up hot, like Spreaker's action report from yesterday: Elliott Bay and Admiralty Inlet lit up with salmon pushin' in, locals pullin' 15-inch juveniles and bigger kings up to 20lbs on the troll. Mix of coho showin' too, with Dungeness crab pots fillin' fast in open areas—Seattle Fishing Co says many spots 7-days-a-week now.
Fish activity's high on the move-in tides; recent reports got rainbows and kings hammerin' colorful minnow imitations and Dick Nite spoons from GoneFishingNW—rig 'em 18-30 feet down for the kings. Best lures? Dick Nite spoons in chartreuse or glow, or silver coyotes bounced off the bottom. Live bait? Herring strips or candlefish chunks on a drift rig—can't beat 'em for picky springers. PowerBait for shore trout if you're bank-bound.
Hot spots: Elliott Bay off Seattle for chinook trolling, and Admiralty Inlet near Keystone for mixed bags—anchor up and drop those spoons. Limits are callin' if ya time the tide right.
