I got skunked!

My report should be up by tomorrow morning. I'll blame it on the wind being incredibly bad. I only braved it for about 3 hours over 2 days. I did see one guy leave with a ling on Saturday though, before things got really ugly. I ran into a real nice guy on the docks who was in all the way in from Soap Lake to catch a charter boat for Lings on Sunday... but they were all cancelled due to the winds/ocean. Bummer!

Great pictures Swede! I want a ling so bad; I perfer them to halibut as table fare.

Sweede -- Dude show me some butts :bounce:

I can't wait for springer fishing this summer...and everything that goes with that... :thumleft:

That was one of my two lings caught on the opener outside Edmonds...3:30AM baby! Too bad they were like 8 lbs each.

RwR rock'd the ship last year...I got money on that guy for doing it again this year...

Where are you boys displaying those Beef wild kings???:-# $$$

By the way Great Fish:-#

I hope that is BC= Way north I caught so many plus 40lbers and got drilled for showing one wild boat side in the water but only a time out talk as the Spring was better then it sprung after the release and the boys clubbers all know me and have boarded me to death 0-100 plus on rules and regs:cheers:

Truth is the lings were back in and by 2002 and 2003 in better numbers and now only a few local spots have them in any size and numbers that one I wont share!:colors:

If I shared were you might break some ribs laughing but you can reach them to 35lbs with a row boat casting jacked up plastics jigs/Bass styles in oil colors with squid, fresh herring and more .
With nothing more then 20lb test steelhead med light rod's and weighted head jigs!

Talk about sport fishing fun!:chef: :bounce:

The flatties I chase chickens only table=ware not bragging rights 15-25lbers not size they eat 10 times better and truth once you break even a 140 plus lb pig flattie off the bottom which is a chore after that they become one of the worse sportfishing logs there are!
Local lings when it opens grand for only about 10 days will kill them and then have to go far north for any game.

I have 2 or 3 local Flatties waters that still on the correct tide and day always provide myself family and friends the best backyard BBQ's on the block, mile or store :chef:
Early/local for the 5 percent workbenchers the King Fisheries should be off the hook hot and this year the early call's for ocean survival rates the Coho are coming I will leave the Stinks I mean Pinks to you guys!!! Kitty litter gone bad!!!

Fish on!!! Great Pictures!!! FINALLY a smile for you from me!!:-$

My biggest waters sins and there of legend of many was and is still to date using my baby girl:cheers: as bait in Mexico, Hawaii and more On over sized sharks:colors:
I was thrown out of the Turtle bay Hilton one trip for dragging up a Tiger shark up on the public beach and swimming area and gutting it beach side and cutting its massive rack jaws and teeth out!

The biggens swimming out of the blood line coming out could of beat Mark Spitz back to the shore when I bled him and it went very bad for me personally from there! $$ lol

I shot 2 bags of bait fish/cut them and had my need come very soon.
I have sinned :colors: I told her the truth after she Grabbed my house years later she was the bait I need the trophy! LOL

We shot so many Lings, Rockfish, cod, Seabass, greenlings, flatties and tons more I wore out 2 Sharpshooters spear guns in 2 seasons I still have one= she is gone!!!! LOL
