Skagit River Fishing Report

Skagit River is a great option for anglers who enjoy targeting rainbow trout and bull trout. These can either be caught by fly fishing or spincasting. The Lower Skagit River is known to have rather dense populations of mosquitos, so be prepared if you intend to fish this area. Check out the video above to get a sneak peek on what the fishing is like in the Skagit. Bull trout in this system are between 2 and 4lb. Rainbow trout are usually around 12 to 14 inches, with the odd ones up to 18 inches long. Anglers are reporting nicer rainbow trout being caught this year than previous years. This is a catch and release fishery, and a bait ban is in effect. https://youtu.be/mYAmSJNHCQA See original post: http://fishingwithrod.com/fishing_report/lower_mainland.html
