I thought this was a seal. This guy was much smaller than I thought they would be.

I heard that there were still a decent number of pinks around, so I decided to take my dad out fishing to see if we could catch a late season pink or two. Overall it was a slow afternoon, but we surprisingly we did see a few bright pinks caught. I figured we would just see the humped up dark...

It is the best pink fishing I have ever encountered. It is nice to see the fish rebound the way they have. I wish the same could be said for the other salmon. I remember once seeing fish jumping like how @Nick Clayton encountered. It was crossing the west Seattle bridge back in 2001...

There were more than 100 people out there. What is crazy is I think there were even more people out the week before. It was cool to see the 2 guys fly fishing from paddle boards out there Sunday. Perfect conditions for it, but much braver than me. I would be too afraid to fall in. It was...

I am not sure. They guys on the beach were telling the cops he ran into the bushes when I got there. With all of the poison ivy warning signs I am not sure those are bushes I would want to run into naked.

Glad I showed up with the kids after that happened. That is one way to get some new piercings with all the hooks flying around though. I caught a hook in the chest that day and they guy next to me caught one with his shorts.

I give the chewed up ones to the kids. They hook plenty of fish with them. When I remember I go with nail polish as @Stonedfish mentioned.

I have used the Siwash crimped on a swivel and not on a swivel the most. This year I bought a buzz bomb that came with a single hook (kids fishing have lost a lot of them) and I really like the single point hook that comes with it. It looks similar to an octopus hook.

For fishing buzz bombs from the beach I use a 9'6" Fenwick light rod. Personally, I prefer the light - medium/light action from the beach. For a spinning reel the Penn reels work well, I also like the Pfluger President series. Line: I tend to fish a lighter braid 10-12lb with a mono leader...

I have seen some big waves the tide change before. Constant sets breaking where I have never seen freighter waves break before.

I did that once. Car identical to mine was parked right next to me. I got in and a kid said “dad”. I got out of that car real fast.

The only time I have to fish for salmon is in the early mornings, but I have caught my fair share of fish before the sun starts to light the sky. As my 4yo says, we beat the sun to the beach.

I had a bunch of follows all the way to my rod tip, but no bites this morning. My son lost one on lead. From what I could tell it was a slow day for all.

2lb test on a green strip. She thought she was stuck 😂

Spear fishing out in Hawaii it was always the grey reef sharks that freaked me out the most. They always seemed to be the most aggressive and most unpredictable.
