    Interesting New Boat Build

    The 80k truck seems like a retirement rite of passage... Then add quarter million dollar rarely used aluminum monster, 100k rv trailer, and the 30k raft ...ahh the American dream.

    FS SOLD 15’ Smokercraft w/Honda 15

    I use mine as a crabber out of sequim. The one item it didn't have that I needed right away was a trim unit... Added a CMC for $700 and a couple afternoons.

    I picked up a 15 starcraft. Same boat but with a 20. Not disappointed at all. Great little platform.

    Crabbing

    We always boil whole in salted water. Cool in ice, clean and consume. Live backing seemed to lose a bit of flavor. Maybe I did it wrong. Slack tides work great for me. When tides running dungies sit, seems like Red Rock are a bit more active. We process and make crab cakes to freeze. Seemed to...

    Serial poacher sentenced

    Just saw that a grays harbor jerk got 29 months and 4k fine for 2 out of season elk... Seems long on time and short on fine... But 29 months means something and might make a somebody think twice.

    Thinking of a Stabicraft for a fishing boat

    I use the Lowrance gear as well. Take a look at the late model hds. Often they can be price comparable to current elites but with much more capability. I imagine the captain will give up well before the boat will...

    Thinking of a Stabicraft for a fishing boat

    Right on. You're a thorough cat for sure. Dig it. Neah bay is small boat fishable by smart cautious folk...choose your day, catch a ton of fish. Seems like the truck is wagging the dog here... With all the extra dough being thrown at the light and nimble, upping the truck seems like a...

    Not a deterrent... Guess they should just sell licenses... Such a joke.

    Thinking of a Stabicraft for a fishing boat

    Usually you gain space in an aluminum vs glass boat, but the chambers blow up that convention. Fish whistle is another chamber boat that comes in a smaller platform.

    Thinking of a Stabicraft for a fishing boat

    Im partial to the Arimas and haven't spent time on a Stabi, but know they are well respected and highly coveted by some. I believe they're built in port angeles now, so a factory visit may not be out the question. Buy a motor that has good local service. All brands are pretty good these days...

    Non-Fly Strait/Sound Halibut

    The dabs are amazingly hungry... 3-4ft can be brutal in the sound...just beats ya up all day and terrible for the drift. Way to put some time in.

    Fishfinder/depth sounder recommendation wanted

    Lowrance can have great sales on past models.

    ...ish... but hand made in Bozeman... you know how expensive it is to live in Bozeman? If everything was made by folks making a living wage while living in paradise... we'd own a lot less sh#+.
