A few weeks from now Vashon sometimes cranks out pretty respectable resident coho fishing, though, frankly, easier from a boat/kayak than from shore, the timing is iffy though in general better than SRC fishing IMHO. Generally the more miserable the weather the better for that kind of fishing. And if any Northerly is blowing, you might as well take
@Matt B advice + Vashon bakery, Vashon troll hunt and hike Maury Marine park from the top down and skip the fishing altogether...Plus keep an eye on Orca network, sometimes Pt Robinson has some really good shore-based sightings. On a bell clear Northerly day, Rainier views are awesome from there.
If that itinerary somehow makes your relationship worse, she's not the one. (You're welcome for the unsolicited relationship advice Speedbird. Pretty much the only way you can screw this up is to go full monolog on the smelter-based histories of Vashon and how that became Maury Marine park and how basically it is a sort of superfund site as you are walking back up the hill...)
One time, waiting for the ferry, I saw a guy walking down the hill on Vashon wearing a giant Stetson hat, a custom print button down American flag shirt, blue jeans, a knotted kerchief around his neck and cowboy boots. He was carrying
and smoking a conventional cigarette. Seeing
that guy on Vashon is rarer than seeing an Orca off Pt Robinson...the only explanation that made sense to me was this was a kinky cosplay and/or Community Theater thing.
