    North Fork Stillaguamish and the loss of its "bugs"

    Could be the combo of flooding and continued decline of all species of salmon that provide the nutrients for the food chain.

    2024 Fishing Aspirations

    Great thread idea. I'm hoping to finally wet a line on the Elwha. Both summer and winter. Also would like to do more beach fishing, specifically would like a nookie off the beach.
