so i hit sportsman park in sultan at 8am with 2 buddys. just fished off the shore down from the boat launch. i tried everything in my box, spinners, dick nite spoons, and fish eggs etc. the fish were jumping all around with some nice looking coho and maybe some pinks but couldn't tell. maybe the 4th or 5th time i've tried the sky with no luck. not sure what i'm doing wrong but it seems like most people say to wait for the rain but the fish are there're. the reason i gave it 2 little blocks is because i had one bite for about 2 milliseconds and i got to try out my new waders!

Alex, the fish may be there but the water is too clear so the fish can see you and they are spooked. Plus they are kegged up in the deeper holes. The right amount of rain should color up the water a bit which will make the coho bite a little better, plus more fish will be on the move which can sometimes make them bite a bit more.
