Hello people who take the time to read my reports. Today is a nice sunny day in the bay. The wind is ok and everyone is trying for there kings today. The King fishing is going good for the guys who know where the kings live. He works all his gear if one dont work then he tries another hoochie. I went out and worked the 10 o'clock hole. [Thats the east side of the dump]. We went and tried a green hoochie and caught one in 30 to 45 minutes, then we seen killer whales and went and got some good videos on our cellphones. My friends king was around 15 to 20 pounds(good meat). The local trollers are finding them off the Umitilla bouy(Smaller guys but they are kings). Just come out and try it you never know you might help me out on this report. (OH YEA IT OPEN'S FOR 2 KING'S PER PERSON ON JUNE 21ST)

Hello all people who read this message. Today i have been recieving calls asking if Halibut opens on the 12th and the answer is Nope. The dates for halibut is June 14th in All waters and 17th and 19th inside 30fathoms or in the straits all depths in the straits. June 21st is all waters.
Bottom fishing is going very well. This halibut opener there is a good chance to get alot of meat because this is what you can catch per person. 2 Lingcod, 2 Cabizones, 10 Sea Bass, 1 King salmon, and 1 halibut. That is alot of meat if you ask me man. The local fisherman are geting ready to go back out and get some kings. They are fishing down by the compass rose, they been doing o.k but they said nothing like the 2002-2004 seasons. They reported to us that the fish are a little bigger this year and are expecting it to pick up.
The Weather is reported to be 10-20 kts which is good decent fishing weather. Its not the flat calm weather but it is good enough to fish in. The swell is only going to be 3ft and a 1-3foot wind wave. This is the report so far we keep updating the weather for you or call us @ 877 787 1900.
Well hope to see you here and help us catch this quota and load up on this meat please. Untill then we be seeing or hearing from you

Hello to whom ever reads this. Today is Tuesday the 10th and i had a few bottom fish trips this weekend and man oh man let me tell you it was good fishin. We fished outside at greenbank and the bass were there the ling was there and even a King we had to release because it was closed on Sunday's. It was around 25lbs to 30lbs and i had to release and let me tell you that was the hardest release ever. This was the first trip on Sunday and Mondays trip went descent we limited out on our Lingcod but the bass was kinda hard to get going. They were practically jumping in the boat though they were topping the water about 10ft off the boat i tried everything then my partner Joe told me ALL WHITE jiggs. The only jigg i didn't have. We caught four Lings @ 28 inches. and two nice lings @38 inches. Well people this is my fishing report for you all The kings are kind of around you just put in the hours it sounds like. Don't forget the hally season again on June 14th 17th 19th 21st. The Derby on The 17th thru the 21st. Till then Good luck and hope to see you around
Mike
