MAN! Wanapum DAM! You better be ready for crazy stuff out here. I launch in tumble weeds over here in eastern washington usually, but this launch is nutz! Waves crashing into the boat... the boat bashing against the trailer... people getting slammed against the shore... old people struggling to just survive... I saw a boat hit a wave and de-cleat an old man trying to hold onto his boat. All I am saying is, if you are going to launch here, it is a minimal of two people that know what they are doing. You better be an awesome captain or have a big boat. 14 sockeye in 4 hours. flashers, and shrimp. Follow the rules or get vandalized in the parking lot aparently. This is the wild west, no cops, and no jurisdiction. Mattawa!
