Well it sure was a great day weatherwise to get back out there, after two months off the water. Fished from 7:00am until 1:30pm. Quite a few boats out there.
We fished Muir from 7:00am until 10:30am without a single touch - anchovy one side and herring the other. Only saw one small fish caught.
Put on a pink hootch and headed out into 400' of water looking for a fish, any fish!! Trolled in a big arc from way out in front of Muir around to the harbour mouth and managed one small wild coho (released) in the next 3 hours, which took anchovy. The hootchies never got a touch, so somehow we managed to avoid the pinks as well....assuming they are there somewhere.....!!!

Yesterday we were off possession from 9-12. When we headed out into 400' we picked up 3 unclipped coho. Great day on the water.

Fished from about 5-9:30 this morning caught 2 over the slot and a small coho and 2 small hatchery. All between 65 and 120 feet. Over all looked slow didn't see any nets out and the fog was just starting to move in thick as we were leaving

Well a couple of young guns out there yesterday had a great day, on the radio telling all who would listen that the late bite was hot, 30,33,25 and released a 34 as they had their limit, all WILD things went quiet on the radio after someone told them the restrictions that are in place

So in effect we should apply a BS factor of -10 to all weight and that would be size of them.

Fished the earlier flood twice the last couple of days. No chinook except shakers from ~100ft. A couple of coho from above 100' but no size to them. Possibly a pink but it wouldn't stop squirming and released itself before I could get a visual. Less bait then a week ago but still some bait showing shallow and below 100'. When do the bonito show up?
