Another morning on the Nisqually
« on: August 10, 2013, 08:22:19 AM »
Nothing like getting up on a  nice cool cloudy morning to head on down to the river.
A few snags, no big deal, people crowding in, no big deal, reel getting tangled, nope no big deal.
The seal that stops three feet in front of you with a almost mocking look at you,yep big deal.
Time to head to the woods.

Maybe we can find a canoe full of them and they can whack that seal with an oar. Just tell 'em it was taking Salmon from thier net and you might see some action!! :chuckle: :chuckle:

Seen a few kings rolling, nothing being caught
What are the rules for natives killing seals?
Seems like if whales can be hunted why not seals?

i was down there the evening before last(in my boat).  heard a BIG explosion down by I-5.  seal bomb, maybe?  sounded like an artillery shell hitting the ground.

still pretty slow, the fish don't really turn on and start biting until a little later in the month.  any time now.
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun
