Just met with owner of Sunrise Motel and Dive Resort in Hoodsport, we will hold the weigh-in and awards ceremony on their back deck. We are also thinking about a possible Potluck or cookout that night during the awards ceremony if there's enough interest and I am hoping to get a keg donated. The Sunrise Motel is offering a 10% discount if you would like to rent one of their units. They also have a Dorm style room that sleeps up to 14 but requires a minimum of 7 persons for $20 per night with a minimum of 2 nights, so some of you may be interested in coordinating to share the Dorm. For those of you bringing family, Hoodsport has shops, a winery and casino nearby. Here is a link. http://myweb.hcc.net/sunrise/
The nice thing about Sunrise Motel is it is right in front of  the area that most will be fishing, it is just passed the hatchery. For those staying at Sunrise, you should be able to launch right off the back deck, they have a boat dock.

Also spoke with the owner of the Hoodsport IGA Market, they will allow us to park in their lot for launching at the public beach directly across from them. We will also set up the Morning Check-In at the IGA parking lot.  We will only be set up at IGA until 9am that Saturday Oct. 11, after that you need to check in at the Sunrise Motel.

If you are not interested in staying at the Sunrise Motel or it gets booked up, campsites are available at the Potlatch Park and a little further up the road past Sunrise Motel is another RV and Motel.

Thanks Dino,  looking forward to a sleigh tide.    I will have a five gallon keg of home brewed IPA to donate if interested.

Can we fish anywhere legal in the South Sound? Or is there a specific geography for the derby?

Just signed up.  Newbie will be better prepared than I was for the Coho Classic and have time to re-obtain all the stuff I just lost.

Matt. We prefer you stay close, as far as Oakland Bay is ok. But there will be a ton of chum in Hoodsport.

Gear for chum is a bit different than coho fishing.

Save the date boys and girls, we'll be targeting Chums at Hoodsport on Oct 11 and a kayak for the biggest Dawg is up for grabs, along with other great prizes... More info to follow.


I was searching all the fishing sites - getting pumped for the sleigh ride.  Went Wsdfw double check the regs. It looks like you can't retain chum until Oct 16. "July 1 to Oct 15 release CHUM". I misreading this?

You read it right.  Also read what is highlighted in yellow and look at the diagram at the bottom of the page.  That reg is for the 2000 ft hatchery zone.  Fish outside of it and you're good.

I'm in just booked a room.  This will be a first for me I need to figure out how to target chum.  Are you guys trolling for or casting and lures or bate?

It appears that the regulations will require us to fish outside 2000' of the hatchery/creek, and release unclipped chum?  Last year we were fishing in November, after Oct 15th, so it was OK to fish inside that zone, and OK to keep unclipped chum.  Seems chums I caught were not clipped.
Am I reading this correctly?
If so, is it too late to move the date?

New date for the SlayRide Derby:  October 18, 2014

Sometimes it is mother nature and other times it is regulations that don't cooperate with our tournament dates.  We hope that everyone planning to attend on the 11th can still make it on the 18th.
