do you already have a buildup?

Unfortunately I will miss the PS shrimp season this year but on the plus side its because I will be halibut fishing on Vancouver Island. I will have to make up for shrimping in the Strait.

Just quoting this so it's forever etched in history.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I want to go shrimping but have baseball during the openers. Hoping to get out for halibut Thursday though.

If you can get up to Neah Bay Thursday-Saturday, I値l take you out. Just me and my dad going and his health has gone down hill. He has pulmonary fibrosis and breathing is tough. He wants to go again so I知 taking him. Could use the extra hand launching and landing fish. 19 foot Arima. If we can get out, we always get our fish. Let me know ASAP. So far weather is looking good for next week.

We have all the gear you will need.

I don't fill much freezer space with shrimp given the few hours it is open, but we will certainly be out.  It's a great way to kickoff the boating season.  Tides look great this year, should be good.

Hali on the other season seems to be a big hope and a prayer that one lucky fish decided to drag his feet on migrating out of the sound.

If Karl passes, I might be available if your just looking for anyone. Never caught a halibut before.

Tie an anvil onto your line, toss it over the side and then reel it back in.  That will give you 95% of the sensation.

Just make sure you toss the anvil in 600 feet of water.
