Everett Coho Derby

[snocohunter]

Who is going to be out chasing that $10000 cash prize? I have been hearing a lot of excellent reports from several people. If i can find a seat I'll be out there. My buddy I always fish with text me last night and said his girlfriend might have corked my spot in his boat 

[D-Rock425]

Tell him bro's before ho's

[snocohunter]

Yeah i know how that conversation will go.   

[Ripper]

I will be out there. Good luck getting a spot, that sucks when you get bumped. My boat will more than likely be full the rest of the season. It's amazing how many friends you get when you have a boat! 

[D-Rock425]

Its just because you're such a nice guy ripper.

    Uh, yeah, that's what I hear.    Nice new avatar Drock. What's going on with H20? Is he going to get an elk this year?

[Netminder01]

I'll be out there chasing $10K but more likely just have some great laughs and put some fish in the freezer.

Even guys with boats want to get in your boat!

I been out with Ripper and Co. one time, and I'll just say this dude can flat catch fish.  Tell Nathan thanks again for handling all of our heavy work, and I got that game 

[Ripper]

Will do Skillet, have you been out lately? I wish I could get out after work, only fishing weekends isn't enough for me. Are you fishing the derby?

[Skillet]

Just that bite last Sunday morning.  Had planned on going up with my buddy to help set up his Peaches ML Quality Bull elk camp on Saturday, but $10K has got me thinking I might have a puncher's chance!

Less than 10 posts into my thread and someone has to stoke the bromance and mention h20 to drock....

Back on topic, it sucks to have to scramble a bit for a spot but it's better than having to be the guy that owns the boat. i guess maybe i shouldn't have left the debit card at home last time and paid for parking, probably sealed my fate  I suppose i could drag out my 12' boat and fish the fresh water in the snohomish.

[h20hunter]

Couple things............there is no bromance......even if it was lovely seeing Drock yesterday evening when he stopped by and dropped off my arrow case.

Next....no elk for me this year. You can see a little blurb of a recap in one of the threads about being ready in the elk section.

Lastly..........I would not discount fishing the river for the derby. In the years past the big males that take the top prizes often come from the Snohomish....You just never know.

[Ripper]

Sorry to hear that you didn't get an elk. Sorry about igniting the bromance fire. H20 does bring up a good point, there should be plenty of coho in the Snoho for the small boaters. Go get em then use the money to upgrade your boat!

It was a good hunt......

I've only fished the derby a few years on and off....not sure how often the big one has come from the river but the guessing man in me says at least half the years. One year it was brute hooknose that was caught under the I5 bridge....on a dick nite.

This one of your "on" or "off" years for fishing the derby?
