1 1/2 TO 2 HRS. That is taking it easy and fighting of seagulls.

Nice haul!  How do you end up storing that many sandshrimp?

I break them down in containers with recycled paper towels in the bottom and store them in my refer in the garage. They will last 4-5 days, but the dead ones work good off the jetty. I will be sharing these with another kayaker on saturday for sturgeon fishing. Whats left I will take my daughters and neice to the jetty to fish. The sea trout have been huge this year.

This weekend,  would you be willing to take a photo or two and share how you tie them up on the hook.   I have tried a few different ways using Stretchy String and never with great results with them staying on.   I have a feeling you know some good tricks.
I used to think that Bigfoot might exist. Then I saw the reality shows where they are looking for them.  Now I am certain they don't

Sure if I remember to. I never used strechy string before but have recently and it works good even in a 7 foot + out going tide. Another good way is old nylons.

BentRod - which jetty have you been fishing from? My BIL has been living down in Rockaway while working on a friend's house. It is a 100yd walk out to the south Nehalem Bay jetty from the house, and he has been fishing it occasionally with no success.
