Puget Sound Fishing Forecast: Promising Cutthroat, Coho, and Chum Salmon Action on November 24, 2024

  • Summary

  • For November 24, 2024, fishing in the Puget Sound around Seattle is looking promising, especially with the right conditions and knowledge.

    ### Tidal Report
    Today's tidal conditions are favorable, with a low tide at 6:14 AM and a high tide at 12:14 PM. The early morning outgoing tide is usually a good time to catch fish, especially for species like sea-run cutthroat and coho salmon.

    ### Weather
    The weather forecast indicates partly cloudy skies with a high of around 52°F and a low of 45°F. These mild conditions should keep the fish active.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 7:28 AM, and sunset is at 4:22 PM, giving you ample daylight to fish.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw decent activity for sea-run cutthroat, coho salmon, and some chum salmon. Anglers reported catching a few quality fish, particularly in areas with moving water.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    While the numbers aren't overwhelming, there were reports of catching coho salmon, sea-run cutthroat, and a few chum salmon. The coho salmon have been particularly active, with some resident fish and their ocean-going counterparts present in the waters[1][2].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For sea-run cutthroat, using chum fry patterns, Sculpin patterns, Euphausiid and Krill, and small suggestive patterns mimicking copepods, amphipods, and other small crustacean larvae are highly effective. For coho salmon, baitfish patterns like the Foul Free Herring or Mini Deceiver work well. Krill and euphausid patterns, especially the White Gartside Gurgler, are also recommended[1].

    ### Hot Spots
    - **Point Defiance Public Ramp**: This area has seen some activity for coho and sea-run cutthroat, especially during the early morning outgoing tides.
    - **Shilshole Public Ramp**: Located in the Seattle-Bremerton area, this spot has been good for coho salmon and other species, particularly in areas with moving water[2].

    Overall, it should be a great day for fishing in the Puget Sound, with favorable tidal conditions and active fish populations. Make sure to cover a lot of water and adjust your retrieves according to the fish's activity.
