Shrimp!
« on: April 28, 2014, 09:00:32 PM »
Who's jacked up to haul some pots? It seems like the season snuck up this year! I still need to dust off the gear and run my puller motor. I can't wait for Saturday! Good Luck!

Headed to Brinnon Friday. I'm in the same boat. I have an 1800' coil of leaded line I need to cut down for my pots. Fire up the puller, and mount it on the boat. Get last years bait out to thaw and make more. Get fresh gas. Maybe tonight! Nothing like waiting for the last minute. :dunno:

Pots, 300 to 400 feet o line for each pot, bait and bait boxes, yellow bouy's and a puller.

You dont need weighted rope if you use clip on weights as you send it down.

If your going to pull by hand good luck! Its hard as hell and you will lose shrimp if you dont keep it moving at a good constant pull.
