I fished the wallace and skykomish today so see the respected report for details on the wallace.

After fishing the wallace i figured i would try the skykomish for the hell of it. So got some lunch and headed to the mouth of the sultan. Sat back while i ate and watched a few boot kings jump. Water is low and was low enough for me to use the same float and egg setup only difference was that i moved the bobber stop way up the line. I would say about 15 ish feet. started to float the eggs through where i thought fish would be and struck gold nailed a 12lb ish king the 3rd float and released it. A few more casts and couple more baits got another float down and set the hook on another king. Probably would have got in to a couple more fish but i ran out of eggs and switched to a float ang jig and got nothing. So I had fun caught some fish and to let everyone know all fish were released safely. Did see one silver jump too. So there is silvers there just rather difficult to get one to bite and probably not very many. No pics cause all i caught were kings and released them as quickly as i could. So to anyone wanting to know where to fish for coho try the snohomish p

I dont know really anything about the Sky but was hoping you had some bank access spots with wife friendly river access.

From montor go just past sultan, turn south (right) at the light , cross the small bridge and then your first left, It is a public access area managed by WDFG, then walk back under the bridge out to the huge gravel bar. This is know as the Cracker Bar. Have fun.
