Ling-a-ding-ding!
« on: March 23, 2013, 09:27:05 PM »
Great day today on the salt.  Started out questionable, had to wait till got the all clear from Coasties, then was a bit lumpy on way out, went flat and clam to kicking it up early afternoon, so headed in for another lumpy ride.  Excellent trip!   We had many fish to the boat, but kept trying for the biggers one of course...  Robodad connected on this pig 29lbs after bled and in the box for four hrs...   :tup:

We lost probably two to three more close to this size, just didn't stay on the hook up.....  Aren't they pretty waiting for nick the knife to make them into one of the best eating fish around.....  Yummy...

I really need to get out there!

What sort of tackle are you using? I need to buy new gear and I'm trying to figure out what I need. I've been told that both bait and jigs are working well.

There were a hand full of boats but everyone I talked to only kept the usual smaller ones you get on the rockpile, I got lucky !!  ;)

Here is the one from my solo canadian trip today, man the weather guy needs a tune-up thats for sure, wind waves less then 1 foot my a$$........! Got it done anyhow so its all good !!  :tup:



Maybe if I catch enough halibut I could add a side of prawns with my wifes dinner !!  :yike:

Nice!  I am jealous!  I need to get out and get some halibut or cod.  Haven't done it in a few years.  Unfortunately my work boat just won't cut it out past the jetty.  I have fished Neah Bay with it and done well but much farther out than Tatoosh is a little hairy.  By the way, nice fillet job!

Yea, the reason I went west.  And probably heading west again Sat/Sun due to Springer reports not being very good.
