Just went up to Washington to fish for salmon. The higher than normal temps and early summer doomed us. We fished hard and never caught one. We did drive to the coast and caught a bunch of small fish.
Black rockfish which look like dark smallmouth bass. flounder which I am told is not common where we were, greenling, and my pal caught a buffalo sculpin.
Also went down to Oregon and fished but caught nothing there. Still a fun trip. Man I wanted to ship back a cooler of fresh wild caught salmon. We could have gotten a charter but our wives would have bitched.
Word to the wise, if you go on a fishing trip, don't take em.
