Who's jacked up for the week ahead? I won't be out for the Sound ling opener but I'm heading out on Thursday to fish for some 'buts and then Saturday its back in the Sound for shrimp. Definately one of my favorite times of the year. I've all but forgotten about the 2nd turkey tag in my pocket, maybe later on in the month? Good luck if your headin out, too bad if your stuck at work!

I have mine. Strangely I haven't been checked since I got it about a year and a half ago. No matter, I'm covered anyway.

The cousin and I are heading out right after work tonight for la push and neahbay. We are going to switch it up this year and try to target a lot of our seabass and lingcod on the fly rod. We have done it in the south sound now time to try for some bigger fish in the open water.

Skillet · « **Reply #16 on:** May 01, 2013, 07:09:34 AM »

Heading out tonight after work to fish for lings out of Everett and catch a mess of sand dabs for bait tomorrow - off work for both Thurs and Fri for the hali opener. Saturday and Sunday is the 'Round Whidbey sailboat race, but my skipper knows that I am not above trying to jig up some lings while we're becalmed...

FISH ON!!

D-Rock425 · « **Reply #18 on:** May 01, 2013, 08:46:35 AM »

I still haven't caught a ling

. I guess I need to get gramps boat up and running and just follow a couple members around to fish.

Smossy · « **Reply #19 on:** May 01, 2013, 09:40:32 AM »

Just went and bought the wifi remote for my gopro so hopefully I will have some halibut fishing video when I get back.

Fishaholic · « **Reply #22 on:** May 01, 2013, 02:30:57 PM »

That would be cool do you use your go pro alot when your fishing?

h20hunter · « **Reply #23 on:** May 01, 2013, 02:34:42 PM »

The remote is the main reason I got the Black edition. Plan to put it out from the deck at an angle. That way...when a fish is on...it is just a click away from recording.

Antlershed · « **Reply #24 on:** May 01, 2013, 04:05:02 PM »

I just bought mine a couple months ago but I plan on using it quite a bit.

Fishaholic · « **Reply #25 on:** May 01, 2013, 06:30:42 PM »

Yeah Im looking into getting one. not anything fancy just a plain jane one thats water proof and I can mount up on something.

Anyone know what your shrimp or ling is costing you per pound when it's all said and done

Holg3107 · « **Reply #27 on:** May 02, 2013, 03:39:03 PM »

Planning on heading out to fish the Westport Jetty on Sunday. If anyone wants to meet up PM me and let me know. Ill be heading that way from Seattle leaving around 5am, plan on spending the day out there until a limit is hit or I lose all my gear. Not as exciting as those with a boat but hey, jetty fishing is a kick in the pants!!!

My shrimpies are pretty darn cheap. Pots and buoys were hand-me-downs from my dad. Put puller is borrowed from the old man as well. Having pots and puller get me a free ride on a friend's boat. And I get a bonus 80 shrimp with my kid (free) along. So 160 shrimp cost me a few hours on a Saturday morning, and some bait that I'll grind up the night before.

About the same as the game you get hunting.

“The gods do not deduct from man's alloted span the hours spent fishing”

GUscottie · « **Reply #31 on:** May 02, 2013, 05:06:46 PM »

I don't add up the costs because that must makes me cry. I'm all about having a good time and spending time in the outdoors. If it costs $XXX then it was worth it.

Not much when you drive a civic, paddle in a kayak, catch your own bait, buy your rod when Northern Sales went out of business

, get a reel handed down......so ya, actually not to bad

Reeling up a ling is way more fun than reeling up salmon.

I'm sorry I love ling fishing best tasting fish in the ocean but not even comparable to reeling in a salmon

Ouch! Area 6 'buts kicked my butt today! 11 hours on the water and a few doggies were all we could muster. Radio fodder suggested most were having the same luck as us. Some fish were caught but for the amount of boats I think most got the skunk. No fish checker when we came in so I don't know the fish/boat ratio. Weather and water conditions were great. I hope shrimping treats me better! Good luck out there guys, gonna be a busy weekend!

Looked to be about half the boats in the sound today compared to yesteerday.
