Ayres said he expects this to be the final dig of the season at all beaches.
“We’ll see where we are with the other beaches after this opening. But anything after this coming (dig) will definitely be an unexpected bonus,” he said.

Crab 12/28/2011
This is the final week to go crabbing in South Sound. The region closes at sunset Saturday. Puget Sound will be closed to crabbing until summer.
Crabbers have until Feb. 1 to report their winter catch to the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife. They must file reports even if they didn’t catch crab.
Those failing to submit a report will receive a $10 fine when they purchase their 2012 crab endorsement, said Rich Childers of the WDFW.
“By submitting their catch data, crabbers play an important role in managing the Puget Sound crab fishery,” Childers said in a statement.
Visit wdfw.wa.gov for information on submitting catch reports.
Crab 12/07/2011
Crabbing has been good in the Tacoma Area.
Crab 12/03/2011
Crab fishing in the Tacoma area has been pretty good, said Tom Pollack at Sportco. He brought in some large crab – some over 8 inches – in several pots recently.
Crabbing 10/08/2011
For those who missed the story in Friday’s paper, crabbing opens at 8 a.m. today in some areas of Puget Sound. Reopening are Marine Areas 4 (Neah Bay), 5 (Sekiu), 6 (eastern Strait of Juan de Fuca), 7 (San Juan Islands), 8-1 (Deception Pass, Hope Island, and Skagit Bay), 8-2 (Port Susan and Port Gardner) and the portion of Marine Area 9 (Admiralty Inlet) north of a line from Olele Point to Foulweather Bluff.
Recreational crabbing in the waters of Tacoma and Olympia will reopen Nov. 21.
Crabbing in Hood Canal will not reopen this fall.
In each area, crabbing will be allowed seven days a week through Dec. 31.
Crabbing 07/14/2011
Crabbing: Reports from throughout Puget Sound have been good to very good, with some exceptions. The key is to use a good bait and make sure your pot is weighted down enough that it won’t move with the tides, said Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center.

Fly Fishing 05/19/2012
Fly-fishing: The Gig Harbor Fly Shop reported earlier this week that fishing for catch-and-release cutthroat has been good in Puget Sound.
Fly Fishing 05/16/2012
Fly fishing: Puget Sound cutthroat fishing has been good, according to the Gig Harbor Fly Shop. Cutthroat fishing is catch-and-release.
Fly Fishing 05/05/2012
Fly–fishing: Fishing for sea-run cutthroat trout has been fair to good, said Anil Srivastava at Puget Sound Fly Co. There are some salmon smolts, candlefish and sculpin attracting the fish. Sea-run cutthroat must be released.
Fly Fishing 04/28/2012
Fly-fishing: Try small fry patterns to catch sea-run cutthroat trout.
Fly Fishing 04/25/2012
Fly fishing: The action has been good to very good for searun cutthroat trout, said Anil Srivastava at Puget Sound Fly Co. Use small fry patterns to mimic chum and pink salmon fry coming out of streams.
Fly Fishing 04/14/2012
Fly fishing: The searun cutthroat trout fishing has been very good, said Anil Srivastava at Puget Sound Fly Co. No pattern seems to be working best. Small Clousers, baitfish and shrimp patterns all are working.
Fly Fishing 03/31/2012
Fly-fishing: Sea-run cutthroat trout action has been fair to good, according to Blake Merwin at Gig Harbor Fly Shop. While many people are using chum imitations, he said to try other flies such as the rust Sea Run Bugger and a Marabou Clouser Minnow.
Fly Fishing 03/28/2012
Fly fishing: The chum fry are continuing to move out of area streams and the searun cutthroat are congregating near stream mouths including the Purdy and Olalla areas, said a staffer at Puget Sound Fly Co. Remember that searun cutthroat trout must be released.
Fly Fishing 03/24/2012
Fly fishing: The searun cutthroat action is improving, said Anil Srivastava at Puget Sound Fly Co. Try fry patterns, such as chum fry.
Fly Fishing 03/21/2012
Fly fishing: There are some reports of chum fry moving out of streams feeding into Case and Carr inlets, and that should attract the searun cutthroat trout, said Blake Merwin at Gig Harbor Fly Shop. Remember, all sea-run cutthroat must be released. Resident coho also are reappearing along area beaches.
Fly Fishing 02/29/2012
Fly fishing: Sea-run cutthroat trout fishing is heating up. Look for fish near the mouths of streams.
Fly Fishing 02/25/2012
Fly-fishing: The sea-run cutthroat trout fishing is starting to pick up. Look for fish holding near the mouth of a stream, as the trout are looking for out-migrating chum fry.
Fly Fishing 02/18/2012
Fly-fishing: Action for resident coho has been slow, while the action for sea-run cutthroat trout has been fair as some post-spawn fish are coming out of the creek, said a staffer at Gig Harbor Fly Shop. Remember that sea-runs are to be released when caught.
Fly Fishing 02/08/2012
Fly fishing: People are still catching resident coho on the beaches on both sides of the Tacoma Narrows, said a staffer at Puget Sound Fly Co. Just be sure to fish during a tidal change, so there is some movement in the water.
Fly Fishing 01/18/2012
Fly-fishing: The Tacoma Narrows, south of the bridge, has been fairly productive. Use smaller euphausid and amphipod patterns.
Fly Fishing 01/07/2012
Fly-fishing: Beaches at Purdy and Olalla are good choices this time of year, said Blake Merwin at Gig Harbor Fly Shop. The closer the beach is to an estuary, the better. Most fish are feeding on amphipods and euphausids, so switch to small flies fished very slow.

Central Sound 01/01/2011
Central Sound: “It’s been slow in other areas of central Puget Sound – marine areas 10 and 11 – during the last weeks of December,” said WDFW’s Steve Thiesfeld. “But, hopefully, the fish will be there mid-January and the fishery will start strong.”

Coastwide 03/10/2012
Washington Coast: Anglers will likely see a higher catch quota for chinook salmon, the WDFW announced earlier this week. Three ocean salmon-fishing options approved Wednesday are predicting an abundance of ocean chinook.
“Chinook salmon abundance in the ocean is expected to look much like it did last season, when we had a strong return to the Columbia River,” said Phil Anderson, WDFW director. “The challenge this year will be to ensure we meet our conservation goals for coho while still providing a full season of meaningful fishing opportunities in the ocean.”
Coastwide 09/03/2011
Coast: Salmon fishing slacked off a bit all along the coast last week, based on a state report. Anglers averaged 1.38 fish per person at La Push but less than a fish per person at Ilwaco, Westport and Neah Bay.
Coastwide 08/31/2011
Coast: Anglers are now required to release all chinook salmon they catch in ocean waters. The WDFW changed the rule Monday because anglers’ total catch of chinook salmon for the summer is approaching the overall harvest quota.

North Sound 05/16/2012
North Sound: Halibut fishing has been good, Chamberlain said.
North Sound 05/12/2012
North Sound: Halibut and lingcod fishing have been good in recent days, based on several reports. Anglers said they are making sure their bait is within 3 feet of the bottom when fishing for halibut. Plenty of fish weighing 20-30 pounds are being caught off Port Townsend.
North Sound 05/09/2012
North Sound: Halibut fishing has been good, especially in the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Mutiny Bay, said Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center. Fishing for lingcod has tailed off since the opener. Most of the fish being caught now are too small to be kept.
North Sound 04/28/2012
North Sound: Chamberlain says there is still some good fishing in Marine Areas 8-1 (Deception Pass, Hope Island and Skagit Bay) and 8-2 (Port Susan and Port Gardner).
North Sound 04/21/2012
North Sound: The blackmouth fishing has been fair in the Hat Island area. People are having success fishing Coho Killer, King Fisher or Coyote spoons behind green flashers. Run them close to bottom 80-120 feet deep.
North Sound 04/14/2012

North Sound: There were 211 fish weighed in during last weekend’s Anacortes Salmon Derby. The fish averaged 8.6 pounds. The winner was Ted Radke of Ferndale, whose 21.72-pound fish earned him the $15,000 first prize.
North Sound 04/04/2012
North Sound: Mike Chamberlain of Ted’s Sports Center in Lynnwood says fishing has been good but “not red hot” as the blackmouth season winds down.
“We are a little behind on spring coming again this year,” he said. “Hopefully as weather gets warmer it will perk things up.”
North Sound 03/21/2012
North Sound: The fishing has not been great, if Saturday’s Everett Blackmouth Derby is any indication. The derby had 82 boats, and just 34 fish were weighed in. Brent Pierce won the event’s $3,000 first prize with a 12.06-pound salmon.
North Sound 03/17/2012
North Sound: The wind has kept anglers off the water the past couple of days. The Everett Blackmouth Derby is today. For more information, visit EverettSteelhead AndSalmonClub.com.

North Sound: The action is slow with not many anglers bothering to try, said Mike Chamberlain of Ted’s Sports Center in Lynnwood.
North Sound 03/07/2012
North Sound: The action has been very slow, Chamberlain said. Cornet Bay near Deception Pass might be the best place to try.
North Sound 03/03/2012
North Sound: The few people able to get out have been able to catch some keepers, said Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center. There are a lot of shakers to contend with. The Strait of Juan de Fuca is the best option right now. Smelt jigging has been very good at Oak Harbor.
North Sound 02/25/2012
North Sound: Some large fish are being caught in the San Juan Islands. A 19.92-pound blackmouth is the current leader in the 10-week Frank Wilson Memorial Blackmouth Derby. A 17.8-pound chinook won the Orcas Legion Derby last weekend. The outside of Marrowstone Island also has been a productive location. Try using a cream-colored spoon behind a green dodger.
North Sound 02/22/2012
North Sound: The blackmouth action was fair to good in the Port Angeles area, based on creel checks. Sampling done at the Ediz Hook ramp showed anglers averaged a fish for every three people or so.
North Sound 02/15/2012
North Sound: The Olympic Peninsula Salmon Derby will be Saturday-Monday. First place will pay $10,000. Tickets are $40 a person. Sales will end Friday. For more information, go to gardinersalmonderby.org.
North Sound 02/11/2012
North Sound: Double Bluff and Possession Bar have been producing some blackmouth. People are having luck trolling spoons behind a flasher right off the bottom in water 100-150 feet deep, said Gary Krein of All-Star Fishing Charters. Jigging for smelt and herring has been fair to good at Cornet Bay and Oak Harbor, Chamberlain said.
North Sound 02/08/2012
North Sound: Trolling with plugs has been the best method, said Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center. The Possession Bar area was as productive as anywhere else.
North Sound 02/01/2012
North Sound: People are catching a few blackmouth but not in great numbers. The best action, if it can be called that, has been in the Everett-Kingston area.
North Sound 01/28/2012
North Sound: Anglers have been battling the weather, but there has been some decent blackmouth fishing in the San Juan Channel. Possession Bar and Blakely Harbor are two other areas to consider.
North Sound 01/25/2012
North Sound: The best blackmouth fishing has been around Friday Harbor. A state sampling Saturday showed 10 anglers brought in 10 chinook.
North Sound 01/18/2012
North Sound: Since Marine Area 9 opened, there have been no reports from people heading out, because of the weather, said Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center.
North Sound 01/14/2012
North Sound: Marine Area 9 (Admiralty Inlet) reopens for salmon fishing Monday. One of the most popular fisheries in Puget Sound, according to Chamberlain, the area includes Possession Bar, Satchet Head, Point No Point, Double Bluff and Port Townsend’s Middle Bank. The tides for the opener are very good for the Possession Bar area with a high tide at 9:45 a.m., allowing people to fish the incoming tide and high slack first thing in the morning. Chamberlain recommends fishing the edges of the drop-offs in water 90-150 feet deep, keeping your offerings within 10 feet of the bottom.

Tacoma Area Reports 03/17/2012

Tacoma Area Reports 02/25/2012
Tacoma: Fishing has been slow off Tacoma, as is typical this time of year. The weather hasn’t helped any, said Art Tachell of Point Defiance Boathouse. People are catching a number of fish too small to keep or wild fish that have to be released.

Westport 05/09/2012
The coastal halibut fishery off Westport opened Sunday and attracted plenty of attention, along with good numbers of fish caught.
Westport 03/31/2012
Westport: Bottom fishing has been good when the weather allows, with some limits being caught. Rockfish have been feeding on shrimp. Anglers are working their lures from the bottom up until they find the fish.
Westport 03/24/2012
Westport: Weather made the opening days of fishing a little difficult, but the people who made it out came back with lingcod. People were having success jigging their bait or lures over humps, keeping their rig at or near the bottom.
Westport 10/01/2011
Westport: The coho fishing in the boat basin has been fair to good. When people are hooking fish, they’re mostly reeling in fish weighing about 8 pounds. A Mepps Flying C in chartreuse seems to work best. The bite is best in the morning.
Westport 08/20/2011
Westport: Last week also was the best of the season, with anglers averaging 1.66 salmon per rod. Chinook made up 65 percent of the catch. Through Sunday, anglers have caught an estimated 81.8 percent of the chinook guideline. Fishing is open Sundays-Thursdays, and only one chinook can be part of the two-salmon daily limit.
Westport 07/30/2011
Westport: Fishermen averaged just over a fish per person. The catch was evenly split between chinook and coho.
Westport 07/23/2011
Westport: Anglers had their best week of the season last week, based on state data. Anglers averaged 1.20 fish per person. Anglers have caught 11.3 percent of the coho quota and 16.4 percent of the chinook guideline. People also are catching tuna but having to run to the 125 degree line to find larger schools.
Westport 07/16/2011
Westport: Anglers averaged just under a fish per rod, with the catch split nearly equally between chinook and coho.
Westport 07/14/2011
Westport: John Keizer said he recently ran about 40 miles southwest of the harbor in search of tuna. While the fishing wasn’t great, they landed 10 tuna weighing 20-28 pounds. Some were caught trolling; some on live bait, jigs and swim baits.
Westport 06/29/2011
Westport: Some limits were being caught over the weekend, with most chinook coming into the boats. The fishing was best just north of Ocean Shores, in water just 50-100 feet deep, Chamberlain said.
Westport 06/25/2011
Westport: Salmon anglers average about a half chinook per person during the first week of the season.
Westport 06/22/2011
Westport: The salmon fishing has been mixed in part because the fish are scattered throughout the area, said a staffer at Westport Charters. Boats are averaging a half to one fish per person. One angler landed a 37-pounder Sunday.
Westport 03/12/2011
Westport is now open for lingcod fishing.
Westport 01/01/2011
Westport and Washington charters reopen today to begin taking reservations for the 2011 season.
