With the promise of nice weather condtions and a favorable tide, I decided to try my luck on the Sound. The water was like glass and the skys slightly overcast for most of the day, couldn't ask for better conditions. Only problem was there were no chinook in the area. We saw some bait on the surface and occssionally some on the fish finder, enought to keep our hopes up but all I could manage was flounder whenever the gear got too close to the bottom. We ran hoochies, spoons and Brad's Cutplugs throughout the water column to no avial. On the plus side, the boat traffic was minimal and the lauch at Redondo was mostly empty.

hey G--man, have they put in the second dock yet at Redondo or are we going to have to suffer this salmon season again with only one dock to launch from? Good to hear someone out trying to get that first nook on the card from area 11

G-man, were you on the north side of Vashon? The checker at don armeni said there were a few wild chinook caught there on Sat (put back of course) but that was it. I didnt catch anything out there cept a tan.

Eviltwin - we were fishing off the northeast tip of Maury Island, by the lighthouse. When you come out of Redondo, it is pretty much a straight shot west to Point Robinson.
