Title: Tillamook Bay Bottom Fishing 10/11/18
Post by: hdpwipmonkey on October 13, 2018, 12:56:08 AM
Unfortunately my camera died about half way through the day because the camera operator kept forgetting to turn it off (Its hard to find good help these days...) so I don't have video of all the fish that were caught this day but I have enough. 
As others have said the quality of the fish caught werent that good (a little on the small side) but the quantity really made up for it.  I could have easily taken a bag-limit of fish home if I wanted to but it would have taken me a little while to sort through the smaller ones. 
Regardless, I had one of my best days of fishing out there and the only thing missing was my little fishing buddy... and I don't mean Mojo.  :toothy12:

So without further ado...

Great video!  Had a great time that day.  I caught that Ling cod that was 2" too short.  That was a blast!   Cant wait until next time. 
Anyone want to heat to PC next week?

Last I looked at the forecast for PC it wasn't looking too promising.  I was thinking of maybe heading to T-Bay again to focus on salmon fishing this time.  It would be Thursday if I go.

Thanks Lauren.  It was non-stop action and honestly the video doesn't do the day any justice.

Enquiring minds want to know..... what's the biggest rockfish you caught out there?

nobaddays caught 3 on his flyrod that were all about 15".  I caught one that was maybe that big as well.  My biggest fish were 3 nice greenlings.  It was a weird day. Not sure why no big rf were biting.  I usually catch a couple dozen myself that are large. we didnt catch any of the bigger fish, even with 6 of us out there. Was still a hoot though. Tons of action, lots of variety, and great guys to fish with.

Thanks for the video, excellent choice of music.

Re size of fish, it was weird, other than my first fish of the day, none were worth the trouble of cleaning.  Threw first one back because I ... well... there will be more...
