Fishing Buddies/Open Boat Availablity List

[2000subaru]

Boat: 88 Skeeter SD-80 16' fiberglass dream machine
Species: Bass and Tigers. The occasional trout that enjoys a EWG through the mouth.
Lakes: I'll go anywhere, but love to fish my local whirlpool, Lake Tapps. King and Pierce most of the time, but if you have a good LMB lake, I'm willing to travel.
When: Usually anytime, but mostly weekends and afternoons. I have kids/wife who enjoy my company, I think.
Rules: No smoking while on the boat, pre/post launch anyother time is cool. (I have my vices too!) Just be good company. If you want to help with fuel, that would be cool. Help me launch and load if i'm not already in the water. Please don't bring your arsenal of rods and gear. Make an educated guess on what you are planning to fish, bring it, and par your rods down to 2 or 3. The bug does not have tons of storage. Don't worry though, I share baits.

[Bisk1tSnGraV]

Okay here is my addition to the thread ...

Name: Bisk1tSnGraV (Jay)

Availability: I usually am able to fish at least one afternoon after work and one of the weekend days.

Location: I live down in Spanaway but will travel to get a chance out on the water.

Species: I primarily fish for Bass but will fish for whatever may be biting.

Notes: I am a boat rider or a back seat filler. But just like AaronE, I am a Float Tuber and will fish with most anyone. Thinking if I can fish with AaronE I can handle anyone ... LOL. It is just great to explore new water, meet new friends and just fish.

PM me if you are looking for someone to help chase the fish to your hook.

[Denman]

I'm in! My schedule is pretty hit and miss though. I work at a sporting goods store, so being retail, I close alot during the week and weekends. Best thing to do, is pm me and we'll go from there. I'd be happy to take someone out on Lake Tapps (I live on Church Lake) or other bodies of water nearby. I fish for bass and Muskie on Lake Tapps and will hit the salt now and then, usually area 11 or Hood Canal. If you have your own go to set up for the salt, that's ok, but I have d/r rods and reels with trolling gear if nessesary . I have a 19' North River Trapper with electric Scotty downriggers that are very easy to learn how to use. I don't ask for much. Bring your own rods, gear and bait, a good attitude and split the gas if a long drive. (not on the lake though) No extreme drinking please, but a few beers are ok with me. Fish on!

wow, I hadn't check this thread recently and noticed several additions. I added them to the master list. We've got a great bunch of guys (and gals) on this list.

I usually fish from shore either on a lake, river, or fishing pier. I have a 12ft aluminum with a 15 hp evenrude but I dont know how to back it up and get very itimidated by all you experts at the boat launches. So each year I tab it but it just sits. Looking for a someone to go fishing and or crabbing with atfter work and on weekends. I fish for trout, salmon, bullheads (lol). Never tried bass fishing even though I have some gear. I have setups for still fishing and trolling and some crab pots.

Don't let yourself be intimidated bu people at the launch. Just go out to a big open parking lot and do some practice backing up into parking stalls with the trailer.
Seriously though... with 10 minutes of playing in the parking lot, you will be fine.

I'll bet you've been loving the boat launch thread, LOL. I'm guessing one of our shore-bound anglers would be happy to help you improve your backing skills. :bball: Thanks for being a premium member, BTW.

We have a good list of ones that want to be a backseat and ones that have one. Should we have a thread that lists both invites and requests? I am almost thinking a seperate topic like the Freashwater or Bass topic is set up already. Will help it be a little more easy to track and read. And then you can refer back to this thread to see of you want to fish with the one asking or offering. At the PSFTC forum we have a section labeled "Fishing Buddies" so you can post when you are planning on fishing to help get that group together. Just a thought.

[Toni]

I would like to go out on the salt Friday if someone has an open seat in their boat. From Area 11.

[smoked1]

I don't have a boat so I usually fish from the shore or a dock. I am still pretty new to fishing and most of my experience is fishing from a dock here in Lake Stevens. I really want to learn how to catch some big river fish as I have only been on the river a few times.


Name: Bryce

Availability: I usually fish off my dock at Lake Stevens every night after work for a few hours. I try to fish whenever I can on the weekends. I don't have a boat but would love to get on the river.

Location: Lake Stevens

Species: Big Fish

Notes: I drink like a fish, smoke like a chimney, and cuss like a sailor. I wonder why I never get invited to fish with anyone...
