I was out at Possession Thursday and there was the biggest bait ball I have ever seen. It must have been a hundred yards wide and at least 2 miles long. Within 5 minutes of getting my line out I have a silver on. After about 5 minutes playing the fish I have him alongside the boat. I have my net to the water and my rod held up when a !@##$%^^& Sea Lion comes up from under the boat and clamps onto my fish! I thought the thing was going to take me with the fish. After losing about 50 yards of line I knew it wasn't going to let go so I had to cut my whole rig off. If you were out there Thursday, I was the guy yelling and cussing down at the water.

After I rigged up another flasher and Coho Killer I got another Silver on within minutes. The fish took of accross the surface jumping and spinning the whole way. While I'm trying to force the fish in as fast as I can, another @#$%^&*^^%$#$ Sea Lion surfaces and takes my fish again! This one snapped my leader off and sat there thrashing around munching on my fish.

By the end of tha day those were the only 2 keepers I had on and the Sea Lions got them both. After getting my boat onto the trailer at the Everett launch, I notice my trailer connector wires are hanging down from my trailer. Someone had stolen my adapter off of my truck.

What a day.
