2013 Salmon SlayRide Derby Nov. 10, 2013

Not a great zombie fish pic, but, i think, it was the first place fish of the Oakland Bay region (still kickin' myself for not going to Hoodsport).  Speaking of whick, my son and i are heading out to hoodsport this Sunday to target chum. A pm on parking/launch location and successful gear would be welcomed.  Maybe see some of you out there . Wayne (laughing steelhead)

Least you caught a fish unlike the rest of us who stayed at skunksville.  While I also regret not going to Hoodsport, especially seeing the pictures Kayak Fishing Washington posted on facebook, it was nice to scope out Oakland bay, and I got a super sexy hat out of the deal (which it looks like my wife is going to steal from me).  I enjoyed harassing the handful of fish that were there with Wayne, Scott, and Dino, and am definitely looking forward to next year.

A week too late, and a different location, my son and I had a blast at hoodsport.  Does anyone have a great chum bribe recipe for smoking. I have a favorite for pinks, but these are my first chums
