I can tell you they are fishing SW Hat Island hard this year, plus earlier parts of Port Gardner. You can see them from Mukilteo. Don't mnow what the catch poundage is though. DFW must forecast a very large run this year. Don't recall this much fishing last year. The visitor dock in Everett has lots of netters tied up between openings, and there are enough netters that some have to raft off. I suppose the money is in the eggs. Years ago, there was pretty good blackmouth fishing around SE/W Hat Island and N Hat (Port Gardner) at relatively shallow depths (50 - 80 feet). You didn't have to drag bottom like at Possession so it was easy fishing. I hope the commercials are somehow missing the blackmouth.
