Again squeaked into the private derby at Henry Island....
We may not be invited back!
15 boats, of which 4 caught fish, one boat 2, two boats 1, and we caught 6! Walked away with the prize. We fish out of better fishing boats and retire to Mental Floss in the evenings for food, music and lies.
Once again this proved to be location, location, location and a bit of luck as the weather broke just enough for us to get out into the Strait of Juan De Fuca where the Columbia river fish are feeding this time of year.
Many thanks to the ownership group of Octopus Cabin and Brian Wellman, Kristie Judd and Rich Sandeen for the hard work and hospitality making it super fun for the rest of us. Hope to be invited back next year...
Les Seelye was flying home in his plane and happened to find us crossing Bellingham Bay on the way home. It was rough, and you may be able to see two smaller boats seeking shelter in our wake. Mental Floss plays Walter Jones occasionally, blasting big holes for the nimble. Thanks, Les!
