Is Mid Channel the middle of Juan De Fuca Strait? Do you have some approximate co-ordinates. I'm planning to go fishing this Saturday.

Mid channel bank refers to the area just out of port townsend, between port townsend and marrow stone point. folks fish the outside edge at 90 to 120 ft deep. fish with the tide.

Finally caught a keeper! Teeth

Fished Pilot Point to Point No Point Saturday morning. We caught a just barely legal 22" blackmouth between both points at around slack. We caught five other shakers, a couple just under the limit at around 20", the others around 16". All in all, it was a good day on the water.

Beautiful fish Marty. You must be a good teacher chromer. Yeah, PNP has been putting them out all winter. Too bad it ends on the 15th.

Byrdman, thanks for the kind words as always. You da man.

My dads neighbor went out Tuesday the 3rd and took a friend who had never been fishing in puget sound.
they caught the small one first and then were able to land the 14 & 16 pounders later in the day

Hey Roger Man!!! Now is this not the same man that got onto us....or was talking to you when you and I went out crabbing that day...and his discussion was on all the folks crabbing and fishing up there that "aint locals..."
Mr. Green

Looks to have been a great trip...and I wish I had been the non-local

Great fish!

Does anyone know what hatchery or river system(s) are producing the majority of blackmouth being caught in Area 9. I forgot to ask the fish scanner yesterday when we came in.

Tom?
C-Dancer?
Anyone?

chromer,

Sorry I don't know the answer to your question. Wish I did. I do know that this has been the best blackmouth season in years.
