Pink Salmon! Perhaps the most plentiful and aggressive of the salmon species. These fish cause everyone to grab their rods and head down to the river for some action. This page provides information on how to target these scrappy fighters. There are pink salmon rigs for saltwater and freshwater – both boat and shore based.

When will the pinks run at the river
Typically good numbers will be in our western Washington rivers towards the end of August
This year’s run is disappointing, but there are places which are open to fishing. Hopefully future years will have better runs
