Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 14:14 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.

Fishing Overview Monroe

Fishing around Monroe, Washington centers on the Skykomish and Snohomish rivers, with Lake Tye and several nearby lakes rounding out the options. This mix of flowing and still water creates consistent action for salmon, steelhead, trout, bass, and panfish within a short drive of town.

Seasonal patterns are driven largely by salmon and steelhead runs. Summer through early fall, the Skykomish and Snohomish see Chinook and coho salmon pushes, with pink salmon available in odd-numbered years. Target first and last light when flows are moderate and water has 2–4 feet of visibility. Winter focuses on steelhead and whitefish; fish slower seams, tailouts, and deep walking-speed runs with smaller presentations. Spring brings improving trout fishing in both rivers and lakes as water warms and insect activity increases. Largemouth bass in Lake Tye and nearby small lakes turn on once water temperatures climb into the mid‑50s, with peak action from late spring into early fall.

Key habitat types in the rivers include boulder-studded runs, soft inside bends, gravel bars, and deep pools below riffles. Salmon often hold in travel lanes along seams and at the heads and tails of pools, while steelhead favor walking-speed slots and boulder pockets with overhead chop. Cutthroat and rainbow trout concentrate along cutbanks, woody debris, and side channels. In Lake Tye, focus on weedlines, drop-offs, inflow and outflow corners, and any isolated cover such as docks or submerged timber. Panfish stack on shallow flats with weeds, especially near the north and south ends of the lake.

Productive techniques vary by target. For salmon, cast spoons, spinners, or twitching jigs across current and swing them through likely holding water; adjust weight so your lure ticks bottom occasionally without hanging up constantly. Plugs and wobblers backtrolled from a drift boat or sled can be deadly in deeper holding lanes. For steelhead, drift fishing with small corkies and yarn, beads, or bait, as well as side-drifting soft plastics, covers water efficiently. On clearer days, downsize to subtle soft beads, yarn balls, or small jigs under a float.

Trout and whitefish respond well to smaller offerings. In rivers, swing soft hackles and small streamers on a light fly rod or cast in-line spinners and small spoons on ultralight spinning gear. In lakes, power-style baits off the bottom, small wobbling spoons, and suspending natural or scented baits under a slip float are reliable for stocked rainbow trout, especially at Lake Tye soon after plantings.

Bass and panfish tactics around Monroe focus heavily on Lake Tye. Work shallow shorelines and vegetation with weightless soft-plastic stickbaits, small jigs, and compact spinnerbaits for largemouth. Early and late in the day, topwater poppers and frogs around weed edges are highly effective. For perch, crappie, and bluegill, downsize to 1/32–1/16 oz jigs tipped with soft plastics or bait and suspend them under a float, slowly drifting them across flats until you locate a school.

Across all fisheries, success in the Monroe area comes from matching your approach to flow levels and water clarity, covering water efficiently, and focusing on structure—seams in the rivers, and weedlines and depth breaks in the lakes.
