Short winter king fishery this year was decent now it's time for annual maintenance!
The state stopped, started, changed days of the week fishing is allowed and then opened the final two weeks to seven days a week and a bonus salmon. All of these erratic and last-minute changes to the season made it very difficult to plan trips. We managed to get out quite a bit in March and the chinook were there.
April is a closed month for area 10 and we take this time to complete the annual maintenance on the boats. This year is a bottom paint year in addition to the standard oil, filters and lower unit service.
We are excited for the six-week Lingcod season kicking off May 1st!
