Northwest Reel Life August 2024 Volume 3 Issue 10 - Flipbook - Page 4
EDITOR’S CORNER:
Wow! What an amazing sockeye season it’s been. Brewster, Baker, and Lake Wenatchee are having epic
seasons and anglers are filling their freezers with delicious salmon. Hopefully you’ve been able to join the
crowds and get in on the fun.
August is the opening bell for coho in the Puget Sound, and in years past I would be gearing my boat
up for a couple months of saltwater action. Hannah Pennebaker shares Puget Sound techniques in her
article this month.
Having moved to Montana, my coho days are in the past. I’ll be enjoying the pictures that will start
showing up and remembering fun trips from years gone by. But no worries, I’ll be chasing 30-pound
chinook at Fort Peck, with a few 10-20 pound lakers thrown in for good measure.
There are of course other fisheries and opportunities for anglers in the month of August. I hope you get
plenty of fishing fixes in. Be safe and put those life jackets on the kiddos!
