Go up to the Stillaguamish, hour north, much of it is fly only , barbless only so unless that's how your fishing, .....
Probably the best salmon and steelhead river off the sound, and by far the most complex of all in the regs, will need a very good topo map, and a GPS or local guide preferably, you'll see the regs are a head scratcher on this one.
It's all broken down by where different creeks come into it and old bridges and the like that you have to know, but it's well worth it.
HWY 9 to Arlington and then up Arlington-Darrington Rd. runs along it locals are real nice, have several friends in Arlington so got to know the river a bit and it's a beauty, that river is the primary initial reason I want to get into fly fishing
Much more likely to get your salmon there
