Nookie on your hookie

FWIW, shakers seem to be WAY down this year compared to last.  I'm catching a small fraction in 10 versus last year.  Actually catching more 18-24" blackmouth than the normal 8 - 14" shakers.

No fish pictures?

Put one in the boat yesterday afternoon.  I didn't see another fish caught, I think it might have been the huge tides.  Leave it to WDFW to put the opener on the largest tide swing of the year (buck moon was last night).  For whatever reason, most of the boats were much deeper than I was and I was fishing out to 135-150, not sure the theory there but they weren't catching.

Any other reports?  From what I've heard its been pretty dismal in areas 9 and 10.

Is area 9 still open?  I just heard on the Outdoor Line that it's closed through Thursday the 21st but I don't see anything on the WDFW website.

Never mind.  I guess it pays to read the regs.

Anyone that skipped because of the tides this weekend missed out. Fishing was unreal. I lost count of the number of kings we caught on Thursday - Saturday. We were back to the dock no later than 9:00AM each day.

Hows the fishing in 9 or 10 ?
Pretty quiet?

Slowed down but we are getting one teener per trip.
Early am has been best but we did bonk one mid day tide change in Thur.
The amount of pressure and the way the state count's encounters I bet the season is close to a wrap...

Thanks bud
I’m thinking about giving it a shot
