Duwamish Coho?

Hi first time post here thanks for looking.
Started fishing about 3 weeks ago with the goal of catching a coho, still trying to catch my first one.
Spent 3 hours Saturday morning at sunrise and 2 hours Sunday morning and I'm not seeing any fish, only saw 1 fish jump yesterday and 3 this morning, no bites on the line. I've fished at Codiga park in tukwila and between the 102nd Ave bridge and Boeing access bridge, drift fishing with dick nite spoons and jig fishing some. Are the coho petering out on the Duwamish/Green? Granted I'm new and my presentation is probably wrong but I thought I'd see more fish around. Any advice appreciated thanks!

Float or drift eggs during an outgoing morning tide at the 112th street access.

Upriver, try to to intercept fish as they migrate through an hour after high tide.

The Duwamish seems to be slower This season compared to previous. However, there are fish around. Keep at it will probably pay off eventually. Hopefully the changing weather will make for at least one more good Coho week before the season is out. It can be good all they way till the end of October.

It's about done. I bet if you check the escapement reports this Thursday, the numbers will spike. That shot of rain we got and the one we are about to get later on this week will drive those fish up to the hatchery. I had a banner year so far, so I can't complain.

Posted a report that's waiting for approval. I thought they were biting pretty good. The Pinks on the other hand proved allusive. Didn't catch one single pink this year the couple times I actually targeted them.

Lol you're killing me. I couldn't keep the pinks off. Them coho on the other hand I pulled out a handful and lost another handful. You my friend have the magic touch.
