Fishing report for SW Washington

SW Washington - Anglers should find ramped up opportunities on many district streams with chinook and coho beginning to show in stronger numbers this week.

The generous 6 adult coho bag limit may be a bit over-ambitious but anglers working the Lewis, Cowlitz, Kalama and Washougal Rivers do have a chance for some good fishing with spinners and small clusters of eggs a strong option.

Drano Lake anglers should find their chances for a fall chinook increasing with big numbers crossing Bonneville. This system, like many others in the district, now requires the release of all non fin-clipped chinook.
