@1seattlesounders Steelhead jigs tied with feathers, chenille, and flash.

@tiberiu75 That's hard to say - I'm not sure if there is a set "best" tide to fish because each area is unique and will fish best on different tides. Generally though, fishing around a tide change can be good. This video was taken a few miles upstream of the river mouth, and the tide was essentially slack.

I too used jigs and it was great fishing... see my vid!

@vadimnatekin Yeah, jigs are a dead knockout on the Skagit pinks. Good times!
