PC/Nehalem 09/09/09 (assuming I don't sleep through the alarm)

Howdy all,

Gonna try it again this week.  PC for rockies and maybe lingzilla at 6ish, off the water by 1, and then up to Nehalem for high tide and a shot at coho.

Anyone interested?

Extremely interested but tied to my desk..... 

Let us know how it turns out!

Will do.  Hoping to score some AOTY points.  Gotta catch up with you.

Drop me a PM if you need any specifics on where/how to find any particular problem species. 
I still contend that I'm just playing jack-rabbit to give all you AOTY dogs something to chase.     At least, that's what I'm telling the girlfriend......

Hello everyone. This is my first post. I have been reading the posts at this site and have learned alot. I got my ocean kayak this year and have been fishing a fair amount. I looked at a picture of Bsteve's lingcod on his yellow Caper and bought a Caper.  Afterwards, I saw someone with a prowler and thought the center storage and fishfinder compartment was good and I bought that too.  I ordered ocean kayat torque last week and it is on its way to me. Torque will allow me to troll long hours for salmon without expending any energy. I am going to have 3 kayaks soon. I have been out to PC approximately 7-8 times after seeing so many fish caught. I love kayak fishing so much more than fishing from the shores for surf perch.  I am planning to go out tomorrow at PC and go to nehalem for salmon afternoon.  Is wind wave at 4 ft, swell at 3 ft at 8 seconds not too bad of condition?          Scott

Welcome Scott.  I look forward to reading a detailed report from you and Madoc on Thursday.

Is wind wave at 4 ft, swell at 3 ft at 8 seconds not too bad of condition?   

The 3 ft swell at 8 seconds is pretty good, but the 4 ft wind wave (and its associated 15 mph winds) might make things a bit choppy.

I'm really going to be playing it by ear (actually by eye) tomorrow.  3ft@ 8 seconds is fine, but like Brian said, 4 feet of windwaves on top of that isn't exactly ideal.

If I don't end up on the water in the morning, I am still going to shoot for Nehalem at afternoon high tide.  Morning plan B may be Tillamook or Nestucca Bay, as i haven't explored either one.

You don't need to wait for high tide at Nehalem.
