If I wasn't working id take you up on the sled offer.
Fishing isn't a hobby, It isn't for fun. Fishing is life.

No takers on the trip so i am going tomorrow instead.... thinking launch at sultan and see if I cant scare up a nook or 2... Anyone up for some fishing ... Must be capable of launching boat.... I can launch but would help if someone can park truck and trailer efficiently and know what they are doing.... Its low so I need the waders just to launch sled, but if some can park my truck, it helps

I stopped by reiter yesterday for the last couple hours of daylight and pulled out one keeper right off the bat. Didn't see anyone else hook up but wasn't really watching either.

At least see any fish rolling around or anything like that?
I spent a few more hours fishing yesterday without a sniff or seeing anything worth talking about. Seems like in the last couple trips the amount of fish hanging around has dropped off a whole bunch.

I was up at the prison hole yesterday morning. No bites, but one nice one rolled right in front of me as I was tying a hook on...all I could do was laugh.

That was better than rowing wasn't it? Off to Camano on Wed. Crabs Thurs night.

The drift boat wouldn't been perfect for some of the spots via stealth.

I concur... A couple of slots we fished would have been better from a rower... My little sled likes to get pushed and some of the currents we were fishing , it was hard to keep in the slot back trolling..... Did find some prime coho water I plan on fishing later this year though...
