I probably should have said and texted “we’ll have to take it slow there on that tide” a few more times :). I kid, as you know I’ve run my prop annd skeg into the dirt on at least one occasion before as well. I wasn’t going 20 knots when did it… but I did it.

Hit the sound with @Kfish in his boat looking for chum today and maybe an SRC. Hooked some chum but tough landing in strong current. Not the end of the world, they were all going back, and the last few feet getting a chum in the net is the most painful and dangerous to rods anyway. Should have...

When scouting another chumster spot today and found a few players. 2-3 in two hours. Not in thick but enough to make it worth the trip. The bright one gave me one of the better chum fights I’ve had in a while. Some zippy coho like runs and even a few jumps.

Starting to restock the SRC box for this fall/winter.

My choice for any given day on the beach is species/conditions/beach dependent. For example, I fish 7’s for coho most days but prefer a 6 if fishing conditions or a beach requiring an intermediate line versus an I/3 or I/5. I’ve also moved away from 9’6” rods the last few years. Coho 7 weight 9...

You insensitive son of a…..🤣

We definitely found a couple nurseries today. My biggest of the day. This poor guy was covered in parasites big and small.

Well, actually lazy. I cycled through a number of flies casting at those lock jawed bastards and was conserving leader material so I did not have to change it. But yes, you can indeed still catch fish with an improved clinch…

Went scouting for a different species this afternoon but only found staging coho in fishable numbers. I’m usually not in the business of chasing stagers but I was there so gave it a go for 1.5-2 hours. Hooked a couple, landed one.

You know, I think old blue knew his time was coming to an end and got me those fish as a final farewell and thank you. What an amazing hat. I know, I know…. I may have shot myself in the foot with this thread. It could lead to a hostage negotiation situation here in the near future. Damnit…

PNP… I wouldn’t dare sir! Or would I? That is a thinly attempt at getting me to disclose my favorite coho spots! Nice try, I’m on to you. On a side note, depending on the weather you could work up a light sweat walking out there from where you need to park nowadays.

Piss poor rule, but please remind me of this if I ever get an invite on your boat so I can plan accordingly. Won’t turn around for hats. That’s like saying you turn around if someone’s first born went overboard. A couple things. 1. My wife is sneaky. She kind ways to get ahold of old blue...

Stupidstitiuos….

My head is fairly large. I think old blue was 7 5/8’s. Fairly well proportioned though. I think Lou surmised the grease from lack of washing made that hat too slick to wear in blustery conditions. He may have a point.

I could not live a life filled with such chaos… Don’t think I can take the time to let fate make that decision. To me, success as a fisherman comes down to a few key things in a very particular order. 1. The right underwear (don’t ask) 2. The right hat 3. The right location and timing 4. The...
