The forecast for Lapush was pretty close to what I saw, forecasted for 10-20 and calming in the afternoon was just what we saw saturday morning. Made for a slow ride out and a quick ride in.

The southwest corner was the biggest CF I think I've ever seen. Probably 200 boats which isn't uncommon but too many frickin idiots. Hauling full bore right through the middle of everyone. I watched one charter do it over and over again... 15 maybe 20 yards off my stern. I took a few pictures of it to share when the time is right, but he wasn't the only one   :bash:

Other than that it was a great day, I wish the moorage wasn't so screwed up I wouldn't even mess with westport halibut

Chad, why stop at the corner. Keep going west. We where wayyy out west and only had about 20 boats with us. Hammered quick limits of decent butts and lings. Doubles and triples where the norm. We ran from CQ to, put 130 miles on the boat, great day.

We were fishing with a couple of buddies who wanted to stop there first. About the sixth time this four letter word charter boat pulled that crap I pulled up and headed across the canyon to finish.
