I got some buddies fishing out of La Push too. I hope they are all ok. I doubt they would go out in 13' seas, but on the other hand, the weather forecast often isn't correct and if the bar was open and things were manageable at the start, they could well have been out when things turned to crap.

A lot of the guys that fish out there have a real passion for halibut. The short season and a start date in the fickle month of May for weather can make for some tough decisions on whether to stay or go.

I will pray for everyone tonight.
