Fobb,

I actually have lost my gut, sorry, a mispelling. Remodeling our house took off about 30 pounds.

Dan, I know that there are some fish in the Wynoochee, but I haven't heard too much about that. The Chehalis also has some descent fishing, but I have heard that it is mostly a fall deal, along with the Satsop.

I am mostly set up for fishing lakes and the sound. A 18 foot Seaswirl with a 140 hp OB and a 15 foot canoe. Fishing the rivers can be a challenge from shore. I also have access to lots of private farmland in the Chehalis River valley around Porter for ducks, geese, and Elk for those out there with an AHE card (about 1500 acres). I am willing to trade hunts for fishing re-education, or trips in the sound or straight (Sekiu in my boat). If you are interested, let me know and we can see what we can do for each other. Other opportunities are my famous "guided pigeon hunts!" Nothing like sloggin' around a dairy nailing barn pigeons, plus they're great for training your bird dogs.

Looking forward to more discussions, take care.

Andy
