Mr Fisherman- Please fill our heads with tales of lots of tuna. Let me know how far you had to run. Last year for a short time the tuna were only 9 miles straight out. What a treat! I'll chase them myself if they get within 20- 30 miles.

Joy, B~C No more honey do's for the next week of two. I'm headed back to Westport on Sunday and next Thursday. Let me know if you want to tag along. Hopefully the weather will co-operate.

Dan- I'm glad the other half of your brain restarted,other wise you would have enrolled at Evergreen State college and joined the rest of the tie dyed, dope smoking, Volvo driving (1984 or older of course) tofu eating, switch hitters. You probably don't need the lead on the 1980 Volvo thats...

Last wed,Thurs, and Fri. the wife and I went and hid at Rife lake, what a great place to boat camp. Lots of coves and sites to see. We saw two C-dorys but at a range farther than we could read their names.

Flagold My great grandfather was a tough old Swede, he immigrated to the U.S. in 1896. He ate lots of that nasty ol' lutefisk and apparently survived it ok, he lived until he wes 95, he might have lived longer if he had not eaten the spoiled cod. He always talked about the old country and how...

DoD I must confess that in several of my past occupations I've been a logger, carpenter and a fish farmer for 10 years. The fish we raised were all pacific salmon. Some kings but mostly coho. It was not a small mom and pop organization, it was a division of Campbells soup. We played by all the...

This whole series of articles is very scary! It may be too late for us predators bring back the Atlantic cod. The Alaskan cod have been over fished for way to long and may be headed the same direction. Three years ago I took my son to Sitka for a college graduation present. The charter company...

B~C Yes we did make it out last Tuesday........for a few hours. We did get one nice king (21lbs) before one of the guests on board became sea sick. I wasn't sure if he was going to survive. Of course his grandsons had great compassion for him :lol: They kept offering him something to eat...

When you get to see your new boat the horrors of the traffic and the cat puke will all be worth it! I too have read all the banter about gel coat ect... We picked up our new boat 6 weeks ago and couldn't be happier. The fit and finish were as we expected! The factory crew are great! Make sure...

Dan Welcome to the club! My toy storage is almost full. Beside a dodge truck that has served us very well, I own a Jeep unlimited (wrangler) and a old Suzuki Samurai that we tow behind the camper during hunting season. I hope my new Suzuki out boards hold up as well as the old "sami" Try not to...

Dave- The factory called and said I can come in the morning to get my boat back from it's first service. Let me know when your going up to the land of bugs and maybe we can follow along or all of us can take my boat.

Dave After talking to my uncle who was raised on the sound in Bremerton, he doesn't recall being bitten on the feet by your mystery bugs, thats when my aunt reminded him that he always wore rubber boots on the beach. He thinks maybe you have run into a new arrival from another land... or perhaps...

Dave I've been around the sound for 50 plus years and have never seen your miniature sea monsters(at least when sober) but if I ever want to see them I'll be sure to come get you for bait.

I sure don't have the problem with that many halibut........wish I did. When we ordered our boat at the SBS last January Jeff(factory guy)talked me into the transom mount cooler. We are very happy with it. As far as fish goo, we had a raw water wash down built in, that works very well. Just...

B~C I lied. I went to westport today. A friend called last night around 7:30 and asked if I wanted to go with him in his boat(21' jet craft) We launched at 7 am and headed south to the G. H. buoy area. For the three of us we had 11 bites 9 hook-ups, got 6 fish to the boat. Three legale. One king...

B~C I'm not going out this weekend for two reasons. One I'm getting close 14 hours on the new boat and if I go out Sunday I won't be able to get the boat serviced by Tuesday and I'm going Tuesday! My boss has his two grandsons here from Montana and none of them has ever been on the ocean or...

B~C We went out as planned at Westport yesterday morning. I'm sure glad I spent the dollars for the radar and GPS with blue chart. It was so foggy that visibility was about 200' once we got out side the south jetty. We fished south, our starting point was the G.H. buoy. We trolled due west to...

Pat and Patty What a nice addition to your family! I can tell by the cute factor that it won't be long until the pup is in control of the boat and barking out orders! I don't think any dog could have ended up with a nicer family!

As usual I screwed up. I started a new thread called Westport Fishing. I plan on going fishing this Sunday if you guys are interested. Send me a e-mail and we can meet up and go chase salmon and maybe some bottom fish if we get done early enough.

Joy, B~C, Cutty Sark This coming Sunday I plan on going salmon fishing at Westport. We normally get there around 6:30- 7:00 am. I haven't checked the tides yet, but I'm going anyway. If you want to hook up with me send a PM or e-mail. The only fresh bait that I know is at the Hungry Whale. It is...
