We have a 9 and 11 thread, figured we should add a 10 thread. Here’s my fish from the morning.

Well done!

[Birdguy]

Very nice! If memory serves correctly you generally do pretty well out there.

The kid joined me today and we found a couple good ones. His took it off the rigger on the way down, maybe 20’ under the boat. Right at the early tide change. Mine was about 9a near the bottom, 130’ on the wire.

Just seeing these photos makes my heart cry out to the poor underprivileged orcas that will go to bed hungry tonight 😥 4 days till I'm on the water again

They should have been told "you get what you get and you don't throw a fit" when they were little and they could be munching on furbags all night and day like their transitory brethren.

Speaking of fur bags...we were half asleep yesterday as I was reeling in a 16" blackmouth to release.  When I swung him across the water to grab the leader, a seal jumped a solid 3-4' out of the water right next to the boat to take a swipe at the blackmouth.   I grabbed the fish to release him, and the seal laid right next to the boat for a second looking at me with the fish in my hands.  I waited a few seconds for the seal to move, then released the fish torpedo style to give him the best chance of escaping.  Saw the seal without a fish in its mouth about 30 seconds later, so think our release was successful.  Holy cow that will wake you up in a hurry!

I've seen my share of seals at the boat but have never seen one come more than a head and flipper out of the water, that would sure wake a guy up.

Got out yesterday morning and found a couple.  Also had a pod of orcas come through, thankfully that didn’t kill the fishing. Got my fish around the 7:30a tide change.

Good ones, junior is almost taller than you

The bait is a lot bigger this year. Have been doing well with larger spoons and plugs for the kings. Standard ace high has been the ticket for the silvers.

   All the herring I’ve found in their bellies is big.
