Puget Sound Fishing Report: Coho, Chum, and Blackmouth Bite, Best Lures and Locations for Late November

# Puget Sound Fishing Report – Saturday, November 29, 2025

Good morning, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Saturday rundown for Puget Sound. We've got sunrise at 7:07 AM and sunset coming early at 4:39 PM, so make your hours count today.

## Tide & Conditions

We're looking at a classic late-November pattern. Low tide hit at 4:23 AM at 2.72 feet, and we've got a solid high tide pushing in at 11:31 AM reaching 10.04 feet. Another low tide's dropping at 6:25 PM. Water temps are holding in the upper 40s, so dress warm out there.

## The Bite

Coho salmon are still the headline story. We're seeing decent numbers in early light with fish running 4 to 8 pounds, and some chunky 10-pounders mixed in. Chum are aggressive right now, especially around creek mouths and slack water. Blackmouth are building up off Elliott Bay and Possession Bar—winter residents are starting to show, which means the deeper bite is coming into its own.

Your best bite windows today are 6:45 to 8:45 AM and again 7:24 to 9:24 PM. Don't sleep on that minor period from 11:54 AM to 12:54 PM either.

## What's Working

For coho and chum from the beach, pink or chartreuse Buzz Bombs are money, and don't leave home without glow hoochies. Boat anglers are connecting with MagLip plugs in flashy green-silver and blue-pink combos. For blackmouth, troll deep—90 to 140 feet—with 3-inch Coho Killers or green glow spoons off a flasher. Cut-plug herring behind a dodger is absolutely deadly right now.

Best baits: cured salmon roe, small cut-plug herring, sand shrimp, and squid for crab pots.

## Hot Spots

**Point No Point** is holding coho and chum on both sides of slack—both shore and boat anglers are cashing in. **Edmonds Marina and the oil docks** are consistently producing early coho and late chinook, especially if you're working deep or jigging from shore.

Get out there early and make those first hours count. Thanks for tuning in, and don't forget to subscribe for daily updates on what's happening in our waters. This has been a Quiet Please production—for more, check out quietplease dot ai.
