Monday looks like a straight east wind. 745a high tide. Tues looks like an ese, switching to a south wind as the day progresses. 850a high tide. Which on3 sounds more promising?

Monday will likely be really nasty early with that wind. Tuesday looks better, but likely sloppy early.

I am still seeing BIG (coho) numbers crossing the wall and it's far greater than last year or the ten year average. What you aren't seeing is the numbers of fish actually entering the river to lower hatcheries. Yes... they ALL have to come through the lower estuary.
OBVIOUSLY this is a banner year, really nice size fish are still coming in. GO GET EM!!!

Im pretty sure it is true beings I just retired from the Cowlitz Project, and have hauled hundreds of thousands of those fish. And know who to talk to about what is coming in and what isnt. I was told yesterday that they were getting 1200 fish a day and were running 3 trucks a day and were hauling through the weekend. I'm guessing counts picked up significantly since the 6th when that report was made. Even the week before the 6th 3200 coho went through the separator. Thats a lot of fish!

The coho fishing at B10 the last month and a half has been as consistent as I can remember for this time of year. Steady good fishing, and the grade of fish has been awesome.

The crowds have been as light as we have seen the last 5 years. Today was dead, maybe 16 boats outta Hammond. A lot of people have missed out on some really good fishing ans crabbing.

Wednesday is an all around good day for fishing and crabbing. See ya there if ya go. We're gonna test the theory on "good heavy full" crabs and what the heck... another shot at B run coho too.

Sounds like fish were caught today. Guide Ed Chin has some nice coho from above the bridge and said others up there had fish too. If the east wind isnt too bad the tides are right this week to catch fish up there first thing in the morning.

Appreciate the (few) updates yesterday when I asked. It gave me just enough incentive to fish there today (Sunday OCT. 12th). I saw a total of 3 other boats fishing. We started (just after high tide) above bridge Washington side. After 1 take down, had a solid hookup that was sadly taken by a Seal. Died off after that. Made a long troll along sands down to marker 5 with no activity. Ran back above bridge and had a consistent bite. Stacked on 5 keepers and then dead again. With the tide starting to push in decided to run to checker board and troll up. Big mistake that took us 45 minutes until we gave up (on that troll). Ran back up above bridge and hit a double within 10 minutes. Both lost. Shortly after, landed our 6th keeper. Kept trolling the area but tide pushed us too far up river. Ran back to bridge and dropped in next to Ed Chin. Right as we passed him (he was hooked up) we doubled again. As we slowed the boat to do our best to land these last 2, we got a triple. Landed all 3. Ended with 8 for 4 rods. It was my 3rd Sunday in a row down there and although lots of offerings got bite, I definitely would want anchovy or herring in a helmet as it was very consistent.
