Winter’s tough in the Northwest when it comes to fishing, but when it turns on you’d be hard-pressed to find a location that has more gusto for their local fishery. Captain Tommy Donlin opens up the season by bringing us this early season report and goes over a few locations that will be open to fishing. Additionally, we get a little insight into targeting early season, Chinook Salmon.
