How many days a year do you spend fishing and shellfishing total? I am curious.

around 200 just fishing.

Not enough:)! The wife really likes to "catch" fish, so she only goes when it's good (August/September) for kings and silvers, but I'd have to guess my boat is in the water 80 days a year.

Maybe 50

A: Not nearly enough. Between running my business, having a new house with a mile-long honey-do list, and all the other crap going on, I'm luck to have fit in 14 days on the water last year.

These are full days, right? I've had a more than a few where I do a few casts off the Edmonds Pier after work, but those don't really count.

about 40

I am about 30-40. I can't wait to hear some of the guides replies.

I'd have to guess 75. A poll here probably would be interesting. 1-50 days, 50-100,100-150, 150+

70 - 80 fishing days before buying a house and getting married.

35 - 40 fishing days since buying a house and getting married.

This is the end of the first year that I have keept a log and I had 101 successful trips starting 24 january 03 to present. I dont log trips that I didnt catch fish and I fish everything from bass to trout in fresh water and bottem fish to salmon in the salt, and both fly and regular fishing in the rivers....DJ

Not as much as I would like. Work seems to get in the way. I was on the water 25 days last year. If you do a poll It should also include do you work ,in school , retired, or unemployed.

Only about 30-40 days and shrinking. Wife's new business. Send all your wives to Snohomish to look for a shop called Inside Out.(She needs to make more money so I can fish more)

I only fish saltwater now but my schedule allows me to make it out 2 - 3 times per week when its open around here so I would have to say its in the 80 - 100 trips a year Thank goodness for an understanding wife

Dang! Some of you fish a lot!

With 52 weeks in the year, you have to fish both days of every weekend to hit 100 days (or take some long vacations and fish every day).

I'd say that I fished 30-40 days last year - probably closer to 30.

When skipping school or not?

Not enough. Too busy saving eyeballs.

Did get a chance to briefly meet TRBO at the Pay-n-Save last Fri am before hitting the Calawah with a buddy that flew down from Alaska. Also fished the Sol Duc on Sat. We encountered fish, all natives except one. No big ones though. Hoping for one of those big pigs, but never got a one over 5-6 pounds.

I would have to say at least 100 days or more a year, thats weekends and alot of days after work or not going to work at all. ya gotta love it.

1999 - 83 days
2000 - 96 days
2001 - 69 days
2002 - 70 days
2003 - 73 days

I am usually on the water between 100-160 days a year. 10 Months until I retire from the Canoe Club- double those numbers!

Between 50- 65 days
