Damn all this fishing talk is getting me exicted. I am new to the site and not getting to the area until mid July.
If you see a black thunderjet out there say hi.

Family day at teh hump on Sunday, four generations all out together, plus a family friend. Late start, as we were on baby/great-grandpa schedule. Gear in the water by tenish. What a beauty day out there. The forecast kept us south of the narrows(unnecessarily), but no complaints.

Fishing was slow to say the least. We scratched up one teener at about 1:45. Saw a few others taken. And there was one little bite where a few around us seemed to hoop up. But of the 10,000,000 boats out there I'd say we were in the running for top rod. Green spatterback, soft serve flasher, 170' on the rigger in 170' water.

Great day. Too bad we forgot to get a family pic.

Any action in the Browns/Deep Water area?

BB early morning flood bite was good, course we didn't get there till it was over and the rest of the day was quiet. Saw a few nice ones at the table as we were putting in. Not sure about the evening, we left at 5. Did scrape up a nice ling though.

 

[Money Well Spent]

Brown's Bay area gave up 2 springs to us yesterday..22.7 & 10.12...Both around 100 ft mark...army truck and herring.
Wind was up last nite and made for a poor end to a great day.

 

[lorneparker1]

Pretty decent night bite tonight. Got out around 5:30 bonked a 10 or so by 6:00, trolled around for another cpl of hours and killed another in the high teens. maybe 20 ish. Seen quite a few nets, lots of boats. FACK IT WAS HOT on the water till the wind picked up to cool us down.

Great after work slay

Talked to a guy from Terasen I think claiming his boat hit 3 tyees 1 morning off the hump (must have been within a day or two) - anyone heard any such story, or was it just gas station fish tales?
