Favorite Casting LURE for Salmon in the PNW

[Catching Nemo]

...

I have seen selective rules for the rivers I go to, but nothing about floating lures only... I am gonna dissect the regulations before I go next. I'd hate to be breaking the law...

There are no regs in WA that require you to use floating lures only in rivers (or salt for that matter).

In WA state, you have to use single point, barbless hooks when fishing for salmon, no matter the salt water or fresh, it sucks only because you have to redo every lure you buy for the most part.

I fish the Green all the time, I thought it was barbless. Well, that just increased my chances of taking home a fish when i go haha


Not quite true for freshwater.  For example, the green, snohomish, skykomish and lots of other rivers allow you to use a barbed single point hook (and no trebles) for salmon.
