Area 9 -10 Chinook

[kball4]

We fished Jeff's head opener had 3 clipped fish at 21" so no keepers for us.  Lots of shakers.

Nothing legal this morning, just lots of shakers.

I fish skunk quit after my 10th shaker so I think I'll wait till after the bad tides and go back out

We went to Point Wilson. Limited in a few hours. Had one in the boat and ended with a double. And a  visit from the Sheriff. 10lb, 12lb and 15lb.

At this rate that's about a 5-6 day season.

Hopefully it will last through tomorrow, I plan on hitting midchannel with a kid that has never caught a salmon.

[CP]

It will be open tomorrow.  Both participation and fishing quality has dropped off since opening day.  But I expect area 9 will close sometime next week.

Big tide swings this weekend. 14 feet in the sound. Gonna be some water moving.

[CP]

This has slowed way down and most have given up.  This morning's bite was steady:  shaker, shaker, dogfish ...

Ended up releasing a nice native and keeping a small coho.  Looks like it will stay open awhile longer.

Only 12 rigs in the parking lot.

Hopefully another week or so. We bonked a couple nice kings yesterday. They are still there.

[Stein]

I ended up with just about everything other than what we were looking for:  shaker, dogfish, too many fins plus a heater fire and a seasick deckhand.  So, pretty much an epic trip.

[MADMAX]

Foggy today and fish are there

[CP]

That's a nice fatty. 

[Birdguy]

That's a nice fatty. 

  but something is wrong with its eye, probably saved it a slow death
