SW Washington fishing update

SW Washington – With chinook fishing closed on most SW Washington streams, effort has switched to coho. Success has been fair on the Cowlitz near the mouth of the Toutle and at the hatchery on the Lewis River. Catch and release fishing for chinook has been good on the Lewis as well.

Drano Lake will close to sportfishing from 6 pm Tuesdays to 6 pm Wednesdays during tribal fisheries in October.

The Klickitat is producing small catches of chinook in the lower reaches.
