SEPTEMBER 2018 FISHING REPORT & NEWS
|
Tuesday, September 18 - Fishing hasn't changed up too much as we still have a lot of warm water and no rain. It's another hot dry and calm day in Olcott. The fish are getting antsy. Fishing the lake is still out deep and in some midwater. The 400 to 460 depths are still really good for some nice kings and steelhead. Loads of steelies are biting in 300 fow with a few kings mixed in there. Oranges and greens are working good right now. Pier fishing is okay. It isn't smoking hot yet, but they are catching fish. Mixed salmon , browns and northerns in there. The best action today is coming off the lake side of the east pier. Different color combos are working - fire tiger of course, blue and glow, blue and silver, blue and white cleos , green and glow is also working well. There were quite a few kings jumping around at Wilson Harbor the other day...Salmon are heading into the lower river. Not too sure how things at the bar are. The weather is looking warm right through the end of the week. Thursday and Friday look a little bouncy out there for lake fishing. If you are fishing the piers on Friday, it looks like you'll have to strap yourself down because 8 to 11 footers with occasional 14's looks wicked right now on the report. On the good side of that, wind like that should make for a fine weekend of fishing here as it is calling for a lot of calm Saturday and Sunday (just remember, those nearshore and offshore reports change every few hours). Have a great day.
