Come on, you have to send the video via PM on request...  Might be a new YouTube for fisherman.  Instead of boat fails..  Seal and sealion battles

Did you get a weight or length on that monster?

The old scale on the boat said it was 18 lbs, I guessed 24 but they always look bigger. If you have Facebook you can see the videos on my page, it has some bad language in one video, I was a bit excited!

Josh is gonna put it on YouTube when he gets a chance. The title will be “puget sound seal v’s fisherman”.  It may be a while but maybe by end of the day. Those that know my number can text me.

 Was already closed by this time last year.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Yeah, our quota this year is around 1400 compared to 540 last year, I suspect this will be the last weekend.

Yep, it has definitely slowed down. Managed one king and two silvers between two of us yesterday. Had another king hooked up but lost him.

I fished yesterday and it was slow.  I was 3/4.  I released a solid 13lb native, lost a toad at the net, and released two barely legal hatchery kings.  The bite only lasted about 30 minutes if that.
