What to do in westport

[alanger]

I am looking at about 8 boats out in the distance right now and just wondering what they are fishing for? Crab? salmon? tuna? have fun in westport doing whatever u decide on.

This is looking like one of those years with fish everywhere. We used green label herring but you can get fresh you have to order it the day before. We used deep sixes and 15 pulls of line no secret just seems to be fish. My grandson just got in last night with 400 tuna for 3 and a half days fishing it was the first time we have let him take the boat out. He also had a yellowfin tuna and lots of shark stories.

I'm going out on a charter boat on friday! Are they getting kings or silvers right now?

[buckhorn2]

Sounds like you picked a good day for weather it should be nice  in the ocean. They have been getting both they were targeting silvers to keep from being shut down for reaching the king quota but now you can keep two kings so are after both.

[bowhunterforever]

So you can keep 2 kings! Can you still keep silvers and pinks?

[buckhorn2]

You can just keep two. Two kings or a king and silver and 1 pink.

One more ? do i need a catch record card for fishing in the ocean, from a charter boat? Thanks

[buckhorn2]

You need a salmon punch card They used to have them at the charter offices but I don;t now if they still do.  When you buy your fishing license they have punch cards there is a gas station right at the dock area called the Hungrey Whale and they have licenses.

Today when we put in to beat the crowd boats were coming in taking out with limits most were silvers if you did;nt limit today you must have not been out. Fish everywhere between bouy 3 and GH. We put the boat in at 8.30 this morning.
