@@raybaby that would be cool! We are probably going to park at the skate park and walk the trail like you said in your video. Don't know where else to really go! Your video helped a lot!
Yes there were many people that didn't catch any even when I was there. Some of the people that hooked fish had multiple hookups through. I call it the 90-10 & 10-90 statistics 😆
My friends have been limiting. The kings are not as prevalent however the silver action should get really good with this first good rain. It will bring fish into most rivers.
One of the main places is at the skate park ( in video ) in Orting. 425 Washington Ave SE. There are many places little further into town that you can walk the paved trail that goes all the way from in town to the river.
There are some real close on streets all through town, but limited numbers and aren't reliable that you will have space. They are right next to the river levy though. You should also check out the area by the treatment plant. Fish On !!!
One thing I forgot to ask, how heavy is the leader line youre using? I would think youd want something pretty strong with a current that fast so would you say anything like 20# or 25# would be good there?
I was using 20 P-line for main and 17 and 20 for leader depending on brand that day. One brand 17 diameter and strength is similar to another one of 20 that I was trying out. In these conditions, don't bother with expensive fluorocarbon or nothing like that. When the water clears up, I go lighter. It doesn't matter right now since visibility is low on most days until temps go down. 12 -14 works fine there most times, but in combat fishing times you need little more oompf since people just don't have patience to let you fight the fish. I suggest checking out some spots a little lower away from the crowds to let you use the gear and fish the way you prefer to match conditions. Don't go too big on the hooks either. 1 or 1/0 barbless gamakatsu with one or two small corky. Neutral buoyancy for this fast drift. People go huge and snag too many fish here. Not needed.
That spot looks pretty swift and narrow. How much weight are you using in that spot if you wouldn't mind telling? Just corkie and yarn there? How long of a leader? Looks like fun!
Yes it is. About 5 to 6 .300 if slinky. 1/4 or 3/8 Oz for most of run works, some go little heavier. Fine line between getting down, staying down, and getting snagged constantly. Grabbing in spots.
Corky or cheater with small yarn. I like 4 to 6 foot leader. Some use lot longer there, but fast-short drift and more important to get down quickly rather than long swing that people do on bigger drifts.
I use standard drift setup. Hook with loop, yarn in loop, and one or two small corky or cheater. Depending on the spot, adjust leader length. Some go real long 7-9 foot. I usually keep it around 4-6 foot there. Sometimes go even shorter, adjusting as I use different size hooks...yarn, corky size, ....or if I am using eggs. Water clarity and flow causes me to adjust. There are some people with good tips on youtube for drift gear setup ( many on puyallup ). Just search drift fishing gear puyallup. I haven't made any yet, but people are asking so I might in the near future.
Good luck. Hope you catch some. I know that some people were doing good while others were not right next to them. Watch people and save it in your fishing memory ideas. Lot of good people out there that will share experience. If you see me on the river, come say hi. Thanks for watching and comment.
No not this season. It opens again on Wednesday only till 9/30. Please check regs for specific details including any emergency changes. Sorry short season this year. Hoping they extend it 🙏 .

@@raybaby that would be cool! We are probably going to park at the skate park and walk the trail like you said in your video. Don't know where else to really go! Your video helped a lot!
It is open Wednesday-Saturday. Watch an earlier video and I show another access at treatment plant. It can be good there too and less people
Wow nice sending my support from #Megs Realitv
Thanks !!!
Keep it up boss ray😅
Thanks !!!
LOL I know you now haha.
You guys were lucky, I was there a few days ago for a walk, I only saw one boy go fishing, but he didn't catch any that day.
Yes there were many people that didn't catch any even when I was there. Some of the people that hooked fish had multiple hookups through. I call it the 90-10 & 10-90 statistics 😆
@@raybaby haha

Ray….man….I’ve never caught a salmon in my life…..we don’t have those here in the south. But I’m told they’re a great fight 🤘
Yes they fight hard and are lot of fun to fish for. Sometimes even if I am not catching any, cold, and miserable LOL.
New friend from Rix
Wow salmon support from #rixchannel
Fishing is good specially when u get big fish...yes its good...support from vickystyle
Thanks I love going fishing !
Nice! How is fishing there as of right now?
My friends have been limiting. The kings are not as prevalent however the silver action should get really good with this first good rain. It will bring fish into most rivers.
@@raybaby thanks for the info! I will give it a go next week!
Nice! Thank you for the reports!
btw, where's the closest public parking?

@@raybaby thank you so much. See what I can do among all the crowds tomorrow. Fish on!
@@cristiangarland9043 Cristian, I will probably go to another river tomorrow PM. Good luck and looking forward to hearing a report from you.
@@raybaby I will let you know here how it goes! Good luck tomorrow!

Corky or cheater with small yarn. I like 4 to 6 foot leader. Some use lot longer there, but fast-short drift and more important to get down quickly rather than long swing that people do on bigger drifts.
See you on the water. Fish On !
Do you think the carbon would be good for doing some gold panning in ?
Anthony, I don't know. I think I heard of some people trying up lot higher on the system on the tributary creeks.
What are they using? bead?
Small corky or cheater with small tuft of yarn
@@raybaby thank you I appreciate it
How did you rigged your leader line and about how long is the leader? Never caught a salmon ever in the Puyallup River. Huhu
I use standard drift setup. Hook with loop, yarn in loop, and one or two small corky or cheater. Depending on the spot, adjust leader length. Some go real long 7-9 foot. I usually keep it around 4-6 foot there. Sometimes go even shorter, adjusting as I use different size hooks...yarn, corky size, ....or if I am using eggs. Water clarity and flow causes me to adjust.

Thank you, very good information!! I am heading to Puyallup tomorrow and try again for the 3rd times this season.
Good luck. Hope you catch some. I know that some people were doing good while others were not right next to them. Watch people and save it in your fishing memory ideas. Lot of good people out there that will share experience. If you see me on the river, come say hi. Thanks for watching and comment.
Is this the carbon river in orting area or the one that connects to the Puyallup?
It is the section in Orting below Voight creek. Fishing is good all the way down to where it merges with Puyallup. However it closed for Salmon 9/30.
Great looking fish!! What do you mean, “some not so good people?” They just aren’t cooperative about moving when a fish is on?? Or?
Yes and similar, but mostly they don't know or mean it.
Most people are friendly and respectful.
Yummy
Fish On 🐟
is the carbon river open on sundays?
No not this season. It opens again on Wednesday only till 9/30. Please check regs for specific details including any emergency changes. Sorry short season this year. Hoping they extend it 🙏 .
How’d that spent one taste?
Spent one ? Delicious. They were all bright red meat full of fat and oil. Hen had tight skeins. Had chromers with less fat in this river. Thanks 👍🏼
I mean you do you but those fish are gross. Dog food
Meat was bright red with fat layer and people loved it. Thanks for comment
