I was out Wednesday last (1 March) and it was spooky. I thought the areas fished were closed. Hit the Oil docks and Skatchet Head at the end of a mild flood, then PNP, and a last drop at Kingston on the ebb. Saw only one other boat trolling fast going north at PNP. I know I'm retired and lucky enough to get out during the week, but not seeing boats didn't bode well - neither did a 12-18kt southeaster. Well, I usually manage to hold my own, but my buddy and I came up empty that day. Guess the non-boats were telling us something. It was the PM - but the ebb at the Point was 9ft and the drift felt good -especially at the Winter Hole. Will probably try again this week closer to home (Shilshole).
