Crap! This is what I came home to? I planned my summer/fall fishing around fishing Gray's Harbor coho during the last week of September. I know it's before the peak of the coho run, but Oct. has the harbor full of gillnets most days, so I don't fish it in Oct.

I missed B-10 this year because I got that week of good tides in the Dean R draw, but thought I'd make it up with GH coho. So went back to BC last week to fish for steelhead figuring I'll get my salmon fix with GH coho later this week. I got the message Friday about the chinook closure, but no big deal, we'll be fishing for coho anyway. WTF? Closed to all fishing Sept. 23-28? So I get to fish GH Sunday the 29th, only. Thanks WDFW, from those of us who have to schedule our fishing vacation time in advance. Also great timing for us small boat guys who depend on the soft tide days to fish that are happening this week. A perfect fvck up.
