I really wish they'd pay attention to things like tide when they give us a day. Huge currents, tons of junk in the water and lots of wind made it hard. Had 5 boat rattling hits that popped off the dr and not one fish got hooked. Frustrating day on the water.

We are still out here trying to get on the board. We were literally just discussing that we think they put these extra days knowing the tides are crappy and act like they are heros for giving us extra days.

Going to be too windy for me in 7 tomorrow. Back to Baker for sockeye I reckon.

It was choppy between the big tide change and wind in 7. Getting out there in the AM was rough but coming back in the afternoon was smooth sailing.
Oh good. How'd you do?

I didn't have plans to fish this opener but when I saw the tide forecast it made me not miss it so much. Hopefully those who made it out found some success!
Fish hard, hunt harder!

yeah I don't know where the kings are.  Should be hot and heavy right now in 11.  I was out on Tuesday and we worked hard for one 13 pounder.

Been pretty slow since they reopened it in 11.  We've released a few wilds and boated a couple around 10 pounds.  Maybe they shot through the point area although there is some pretty good bait there.  May be time to hit some spots in area 13.
