FYI - Saltwater fishing gear bonanza in Seattle metro area

http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/spo/5015186850.html

I went over to this fellow's house last night and bought way, way more stuff than I should have. He's selling items for pennies on the dollar. He's got thousands of items - rockfish gear, giant scampis, jigheads, spreader bars, rods, reels, salmon gear, harpoons, you name it, he's got it. He's an 81-year old fisherman with a lifetime of PNW fishing equipment (an entire garage completely full, and impressively well-organized).

If you need anything at all, give this fellow a call. His name's Bob. # is on CL listing.

Wish I was closer

Honestly, it's worth the drive from OR alone to hear this fellow's stories. I probably spent close to 2 hours just listening to this fellow last night.
