Made my first trek to Seiku over the weekend fishing with Kev and Reiter Rat and couldn't have been happier. Silly, silly fishing although the nates outnumbered the hatchery fish probably ten to one. I think a lot fewer nates would end up dead if they'd let us keep even one considering the number that get hooked, netted, flopped around and tossed back in.

We weren't getting out our net till we could see if it had a rudder or not but we unhooked a lot of nates that had obviously been in a net or handled too much. It got to be where we expected any bright, not-scarred or discolored fish to be a hatchery fish.

Lots and lots and lots of fish out there. Incredible. I'm ruined for fishing in the Sound.
