Chum-a-thon Nov 15

I recognized that URL and didn't even have to open the link. That's some crazy kayaking but I didn't see any fishing rods (maybe they were stowed for that launch).

WDFW Chum Salmon Recipe Challenge..

Not sure what to do with the chum I took from Minter & lacking a smoker at my friends' place I was house-sitting in Seattle, I checked out the WDFW recipe challenge from the link bsteves posted. When my friends came home they made the Chum Salmon Ginger and it was deeelicious.    Highly recommended.

before i totally forget this;

was talking to Bob, a sales rep in the lacey sportmans warehouse  [ really great guy to talk fishing and tackle with]a few days after our chum mis(sing)- adventrue. he told me that yes, the downtown launch we used in hoodsport is a nice place to get into some urban freight trains, but we should have used the public launch at the state park just before the town of hoodsport. it's the park that is split by the road going in. Bob told me that soon as we launched from there, we should make an immediate left and drop our bait, then drag it up canal about 400 yds. he says he has never failed to hook up in that area doing this..

gee whish we had known then, huhn?
