OUTDOORS: Matt Schubert’s five best bets to do this weekend

• Sol Duc salmon — Sure, it might be a bit of a zoo this weekend. But for good reason.

There’s loads of silvers swimming around.

• Razor Clam digs — Kalaloch clammers have two days (today and Saturday) to fill up the freezer.

Don’t let the surf forecast scare you. Kalaloch was quite productive during the last set of digs in October, especially around the campground.

• Archery practice — Didn’t bag a buck with your bow the first time around? Maybe you need more practice.

The Wapiti Bowmen Archery Club will provide the bow-and-arrow set just that when it hosts a late season 3-D archery shoot Saturday at 8 a.m.

The shoot will feature 20 full-size 3-D animals at unmarked distances at the club’s 20-acre wooded range at 374 E. Arnette Road in Port Angeles. Cost is $5.

For more information about the club, send an e-mail to wapitibowclub@gmail.com.

• Fallpin’ about flatties — It’s never too early to bone up on flattie information.

Sequim’s Dave Croonquist will discuss the Peninsula halibut fishery at the Puget Sound Anglers-East Jefferson Chapter monthly meeting in Port Townsend on Tuesday night.

The meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the Marina Room at Point Hudson Marina.

• Steelhead class — Chasing after the steelies might not be a good idea right now, but learning about them sure is.

Brian Menkal of Brian’s Sporting Goods and More (360-683-1950) in Sequim will dish plenty of dirt on the Peninsula’s premiere winter fishery with a two-day introductory steelhead fishing class Nov. 9 and 16.

Menkal will talk in detail about gear, techniques, run timing and all other things steelhead related at the class, which will meet from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. both dates.
