Summer run salmon are pouring up the Columbia River and there will be plenty of them in our region in time for the opening of the season on July 1st. What everyone is watching though is the numbers of sockeye that are coming with them. The forecast for sockeye this year was dismal, but they have already passed the 10 year average. It is difficult to gauge the return of sockeye. We just haven’t had the big runs we seen the past few years ever before. If they keep coming they may just surprise everyone and we could have a season. Keep your fingers crossed. It would be great if it happened. If you want to hone your skills at catching summer salmon you will want to attend the free seminar being offered by Bob Feil Boats and Motors. It will be held at their dealership on Sunset Highway in East Wenatchee on Tuesday, July 12th, starting at 6 p.m. Austin Moser, of Austin’s Northwest Adventures will be there to share his secrets, and I will be there to talk about some other prime summer fisheries. If you want to make the most of your time on the water fishing for salmon this season, better be there.
