Good suggestion on the hydraulic bypass screw, Trophy. That was plan "B", but because my Honda sits on an extended bracket, the only way to get to the screw would have been inflating my Avon raft and coming in behind the kicker bracket with a screw driver
The jumper cables saved me from having to resort to the raft

New motor for me and day 1 was mostly break in putta putt. I did get out to seabird rocks by pachena bay and found a batch of coho..4 in an hour..only 1 clippy tho.
Day 2 ( yest) was really flat so i went out to the rats nose. Pyrosomes like cotton candy stands at the PNE...#÷×$% !!!!
I never kept my lines down long enuf to find out if there were fish around. In 5 mins, the dr line was blown back 60 degrees.
I went 3 miles or so further west and got a pair of 10lb chins and a 15lb hali.
Several more hali bit one after another..so i musta hit a carpet patch.
I trolled my way back across the bank fishing shallower for coho but within a mile the pink sausages were back in thick so i decided it was time for beer.
Not the best day for fish size but the sun and the flat water was killer!

Nice picture, Derby, and glad you got some of the good stuff. That same pattern made my trip, though on a different spoon called "Cookies n' Cream"---good enough to eat

Fishing has been really good for springs, coho and halis. Outer islands have been the best, not a lot of biggy's yet, but I saw a 29 last week from the Wall. Our best was a 21, and a 9 lb coho. Lots of action and tons of bait, especially little herring.
