Can take three at a min, probably four, but I only got enought decent gear for three (Okuma 25's), Unless someone brings there own set-up...  If for Salmon, got plenty of that terminal tackle, just left handed stuff (Abu Garcia 6501's)...  Figure HuntWA would have the co-seat since he was the best anchor guy out there yet....

I'm all for catching dinosaurs. If I have to haul some lead then that's fine with me. No need for competition on the brainless work.  :chuckle:

i have rods and reels equivalent to what huntnphool  has on his boat that ray can borrow....say the word.
my weekends are mostly gonna be booked for the summer with scouting trips, vacations, family time till hunting season, etc, but the rods are there for the taking.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Huntnphool, probably would know best, but too me water is plenty deep enough, saw a couple bigger boys up same area late in the day.  I guess it might be tricky coming back around the piers, etc.. with the low sandy areas...  But man it would be a smooth ride through the chop versus the jets....  Oregon side not a problem at all, there were 50 foot crusiers where we were at..

Not a problem Pope, we would just have to play follow the leader. Do you have GPS?
