Final day on Marine Area 9: Midchannel & Possession.
Posted: Fri Apr 15, 2011 2:29 pm
Pretty tough for us out there today!
We ran for Possession at first light and did not find much bait on our two passes so,... off for Midchannel bank we ran.
The ebb was slowing down and fixin' to switch so we got one troll from Marrowstone to Wilson and then it was time to ride the flood.
We saw ten other boats hugging Pt. Wilson but nothing much happening. We did release a small wild fish on our second pass and that was that.
On the way back, we ran into Nick Kester who was into a decent fish....with a harbor seal attached! We quickly deployed the Roman Candles and wrist rockets in an attempt to help Nick save the fish for his customers...but no dice...
Looks like the winter season on Admiralty Inlet has gone out with a whimper....
