Bouy 10 Sunday

[Fishnclifff]

Just got back from the coast.
 We didn't fish Buoy 10, instead we headed for the ocean.
 Long run out, bar was pretty roley poley. Lots of chumming going on all around the boat.

My son and his Friends tried the drink all nite-fish all day method  2 of them didn't see much fishin time, alot of rail time tho.

Glad to see Ryan and Jerrod get to go . Jerrod donated his breakfast and then was bouncin around the boat. Ryan , well , he survived.   they got 3 nice fish.

Had 14 fishers on the boat. Limited all 14, 28 fish. 3 real nice kings.
Got to see a bunch of gray whales. 2 complete breeches. a lot of tail fluke waving.

Filleted 3 of ours, 3 to go. I'm dead. Gonna post some pics tomorrow.
Anyone want some crab bait, I will have 6 carcs in the freezer.

Haha, a guy can get a lot of rod/reel time in if he can keep from getting sick.

You all limited the boat, nice!. Sounds like a good time was had  Except maybe for the chummers

I was puking my guts out!   But I had a blast! Meanwhile, while I'm choking up my esophagus my boy is eating beef jerky and chewing green apple gum while dancing around on the deck - I bet I was as green as his gum! He is a little trooper, no dramamine or anything and I cant believe he wasnt sick at all, showed ol Dad up for sure!    I am just now recovered from all the *chumming* & driving! I'll post our pics later today. Thanks again for the invite - it was a great day!

Oh hell  you didn't look thaaaaaaaaaaaat bad.
I was happy we got some good fish.
Robbie is a trooper, he will search and search for fish.
Glad ya got home okay.
 I pretty much died when we got home.

Yeah me too - me & Jared unloaded the fish & lunch food and crashed within 10 minutes of walking thru the door. Took monday off and slept til 1130! I was wiped out and the drive home was brutal! We got home about 845pm and spent an hour & half in stop & go bumper to bumper traffic from Olympia to the Tacoma Dome. I was not a happy traveler at all!

But I had a great time and got lots of fish for the freezer! Jared had a great time too and keeps telling me he had fun and he's not big into fishing and hardly ever goes with me. So I was glad he enjoyed it and the action was hot & heavy to keep him interested. Those fish were gorgeous and it was a good deal too. If I ever get over the stigmatism of getting deathly seasick from 4ft swells & less,   I may consider doing it again!

Here are some of my pics. I wish I would have gotten out my cam & taken pics holding the fish as they came on the boat. They look so much better that way but I was feeling too crappy to go inside & get the camera! Look at my coho 3rd from the left in the last pic - its bigger than both the kings!

 Glad to see you got into em, just currious if you know where abouts the boat got into em, don't need #'s but wondering if you headed north or west of the CR bouy any mention of depth or temp flaoting around the deck.

[Fishnclifff]

Best I can tell ya
We were 4-6 miles west and 1-2 miles north of the bouy at the mouth.
300-350 ish depth.
The storm they had scattered the fish, so we trolled and hunted.
I heard the boats south of the river did about 40% of what we did.
The skippers were likin the winds and weather to bring the fish back together this week. they all had high hopes based on the predictions.

Wow brutal drive is right. I dd a few like that to Camano island.
Next year, 2 dramamine the 2 days before in the morn, and 1 on fishin day, you will be good to go.
Did he get the blood stains out of his sweats or is keeping them as a trophy.
Maybe next year we can do a HW trip with a bunch of guys.
I sent you a PM

[trippledigitss]

Yeah his sweats must have come clean cuz when I asked momma about it she said "what blood stains? I didnt see any so they must have..." - but she is not the most observant person by any means! (maybe I should try coming home with some lipstick on my collar & see if she notices!)    Poor kid is probably walking around with blood stained sweats right now, he's on vacation at Silverwood in ID with my mom!
