Pt. Defiance

I did pretty good for having the wife and kids in the boat with me.  Boated two the hatchery king was about 13 pounds, the native 20 lbs that swam away once I got the hooks out.  Lost another 10 or so pound king at the boat.  And had a pig on but lost it before I set eyes on it.

Kicking myself now! i had the boat all ready to go for the afternoon tide, but decided to stay home. From reading the past post it seemed slow. looks like its picking up a little now

Look for it to really slow after tuesday. Area 9 and 10 open...

I think its only going to improve over the next month before it starts to slow.

How could it with area 9 and 10 opening for retetion tomarow? Ever since they reopened those areas 4 or 5 years ago our south sound fishing has degraded.

They slam allot of fish up there before they can make it down.

Well I seem to do better all the way through August.  No way that the majority of fish have come in yet.  It is only going to get better, and the bigger fish will start to show.

It used to be bonkers at Pt D. With no Putallup fish, and area 9 and 10 open. It sure went south...

There are still 60K kings that make it back to Oly.  The fishing up north lets a ton of fish through still....
