Keepers and Releases on low water.
This was my first time fishing for salmon and did not know what to expect really. Agustin was very helpful and informative. He was good with contact and responding to questions prior to the float. This was a float trip on the Queets River, no motor. Agustin did the work rowing and anchored us at holes and currents where the fish congregated. We used spinner baits and salmon roe. We caught several Kings that we released since they had been up river a while and waiting for better catches. We limited on Kings and caught several Cohos. We actually saw many schools of Coho, not all wanting to take the bait. Considering the low level of the water, I think we did pretty good. I sent a 15 quart cooler full of filleted fish home. Overall, I would use Dtf Quinault Guide Service first choice. Fishing the reservation was the way to go. We saw only one other boat and only a handful of fishermen wading.
