Humpy Hollow is a general area basically from the shipwreck north to Mukilteo. It's that entire stretch of water.

What is the story of the shipwreck? How did it get there? Is it on private property?
A bad day of fishing, is better then a good day at work !!!!!!!

The "shipwreck" is not really a wreck. The area was used for years by a guy who would beach old wooden boats and salvage the metal parts and any other salable items. Most of the hulks were burned to get rid of them to make room for more. No EPA, or dumping rules back in the old days.

Here is a map of Humpy Hollow - http://berrce.com/humpies.pdf
But once you get south of Mukileto you'll see all the boats.

Here are some other resources I've found
http://www.salmonuniversity.com/ol_Pink ... Wiest.html
http://www.steelheaduniversity.com/Pink ... _2009.html

I've gone out a couple times (when friends make room for me in thier boat) and we've done well each time. We've gotten good results w/ white flasher & pink hootchie. We've been catching most of them between 60-75' down.

Last week we got alot of action when we started trolling faster, about 2.5MPH w/ the current.

Enjoy

Really? darn, that takes a lot of the romance out of that location. I think I'll continue to tell people it was an unfortunate maritime accident... much better for story telling!
