2015 Humpy Kayak Classic

What store would I be able to  buy all of the tackle I need to fish for pinks close by Dash State Park?  I'll be coming over I-90 from the Tri-Cities late in the afternoon on Friday.  I can't find what I need over here.  I was thinking maybe Cabelas or Sportco?
Thanks

It's pretty similar to kokanee gear.  Watch that video that Zee linked.

Signed up. Waiver on the way.  Looking forward to a great day of fishing.  Just got back from my first trip to AK, Homer. Came home a nice batch of fish. Charter fished two day (supposed to be three but the team huntress boat broke down). Can't wait to get up there again.

curious , what did that lingcod weigh?

Read my mind.  That thing is a tank.

It was 51 inches long. Looking at conversion charts, it was 45-50 pounds   My first big ling  and was a beat to get in.

WR,  Thanks for the info on the Sportco in Seattle and Sportsmann's Warehouse.  I'm sure I'll be able to find what I need and it's on the way  We don't have too many pinks over here on the East side, so the stores don't carry very much Humpy gear..

Done gone and signed up. Planning on being there. Got a campsite as well. I did have trouble with downloading the waiver to fill out. if someone could email me a copy I would appreciate it.

Hoping for a lot more fish than yesterday...   The dear spousal unit decided she wanted to go fishing, so we went up to Point No Point and joined the combat fishery up there.  Hit most of the morning ebb tide cycle,  tossing pink jigs, buzz-bomb, and a plastic squid hoochie from shore, ended up with only one sculpin and a not-quite-worth-keeping flounder for the day.  We saw one other shore fisherman get a salmon-sized hit, but it got away from him.  Saw one net being used for a capture (out of the dozens of floating platforms out drifting/trolling/mooching).  Not a high-percentage day for anyone...

So here's to hoping the pinks will be at Dash Point already!

Jim (my day will be a success if I catch one salmon and get my boat finally blooded...)

Hey RoxnDon Point No Point doesn't get a lot of fish that pass through occasionally they do but it isn't much so keep your hopes up! All I can say is they are in at Dash Point. The past 2 days Ive gone out, I hooked into about 14 fish and lost 9 of them ending up with 5 total for those 2 days.

 to Sound Outfitters in Seattle is also joined up as a sponsor. Thanks Greg

Here is the final list of Sponsors, we have some great prizes and swag for the tournament. Get signed up quick, time is running out.

Just a reminder, tomorrow will probably be the last day to mail in a check for your tournament fees. Please make checks payable to Dino Abulencia and put 2015 Humpy Kayak Classic in the memo. Thanks again for your support.

I have a camp site at Dash Point for Friday Night that I don't think I need anymore ( I am driving up Saturday morning).  Because of the fees, it is not worth canceling it.  If anyone wants it they can have it for the base registration price, $30.   Just let me know and I will change the name on the reservation. 

Just paid/emailed waiver. Looking forward to participating in my first tourney!

In it to win it.  Payment/waiver sent.
