Sockeye are coming up the Columbia in huge numbers this year, and they are drawing huge numbers of anglers to the Brewster area. Even during the week there are 50 to 70 boats packed near the mouth of the Okanogan River, and most of them are trying for the sockeye. According to Bob Fateley at the Triangle Shell in Brewster, there are anglers coming from Wyoming, Montana, Idaho and other states here to get in on the action. Emphasis on sockeye will shift here soon, though, even if temporarily to summer-run kings. The 5th Annual Budweiser-Lowrance King Salmon Derby, put on by the Brewster Chamber of Commerce kicks off on August 6th. Anglers who want to fish the derby and get a chance to win some of the $15,000.00-plus cash and prizes that will be handed out, still have time to register. Registrations will be taken until 9 p.m. on Thursday, August 5th. Even if you’re not in the habit of fishing derbies, this one is worth entering. The derby organizers to an excellent job of taking care of everyone, so even if you don’t make the board you’re going to enjoy the time spent here.
