Two of us caught our limit at Possession Sat. Smallish fish though. I'll be out again on Sunday.

Caught a nice 26" fish Sat off Pilot Point (picture over at WashingtonLakes.com front page). Lost several others, dull hooks I guess. I saw several nets being waved.

Would give a Hood Canal report but our season was stolen to give the Seattle area guys a CNR season on blackmouth. Sure was fun to spend the beautiful winter mornins downrigging without a crowd for some really nice fish.

My friend Jeff Whitehead has gotten me into this fishery and it is fun. We have caught our limits fishing Elliot Bay right in close out front of the Seattle skyline. Loved it!

Any Q's you have about techs for this fishery, I think he might see this thread and can answer them for you - except for secret spots. He has it dialed in well.

Got a couple of nice 10 lbers on the opener and then a couple of 8 lbers on Sat. around Hat Island. will most likely be out Friday, weather permiting. The bites have been short but sweet!
