I have an opportunity to fish POW in mid-late August. Primarily salmon with some halibut.
I have previously fished the area but only in June and early July.
Should the fishing in August be better or worse or no different? Weather?
I do realize it is fishing so there are no guarantees anytime.
Thanks

Was there last year first week of August and am going again this year a few days earlier. Coho didn't really show up until late August this year, but we still brought home a few. Lot of smaller kings. Halibut action was steady. Fished out of Ketchikan third week of August two years ago and did ok on silvers, but they were late coming in again. Should be pretty good for your trip depending on the run timing this year and where you're planning to go
