Very good fishing for the second day in a row. Started out a little shakey with a few ships and tugs going out the channel, stirring things up, plus the drifting conditions weren't all that great. Still picked at the fish with some nice keepers and shorts coming in. Change of tide was the key again today. Started to drift the right way, the bite was on! Several limits again including: John Autrey (who also had the pool fish) Scott Ure, My Dad (naturally), Steve hanstien, who needed an extra 10 minutes at the end of the day, plus the whistle fish to get'er done! Too bad we only have 10 days left..better get out and enjoy them while you can....just a note to some of the smaller boats who missed the etiquette class in the boater course....Please be awear of the drifting conditions when you stop on top of the guys working, if the drift is going OUT the channel and a boat is power drifting, do not stop on our stern, or the downside of the drift, we will naturally run together. Had a guy today do this, then asked me "What your backing up" This after he stoped right on top of me. Told him I was trying to hold a drift line, he even went as far as too say "what, you didn't see me!! Yes, and you saw me! Don't mind sharing, just give me some room to work...Please....capt.ron
