Mannie,

<Did the salmon take your bait as your were dropping it to the bottom for the halibut?>

No, Rose was being very serious about it as were the salmon!

DOH! RIMSHOT!

mannie-

we started the day trolling for salmon
and then after the slack, moved to the
halibut fishing grounds where we anchored
and jigged for halibut.

two different techniques, and entirely
different fishing rods. apparently bringing
in a halibut is like hauling up a rock.
it feels like a dead weight. we didn't
catch any today.

our friends just bought their boat in tacoma
and we'll probably have an opportunity to go
out with them again. its good to be able to
share the cost of fuel.

he's got it rigged up really smart with a
cleaning trough in the stern. he's a firm
believer in cleaning the fish immediately,
especially coho as they can suffer from
something called 'belly burn' and they begin
to deteriorate very quickly.

ask me anything - i'm an expert now that i've
caught a fish <vbg>
