We headed out of Anacortes on Saturday morning around 900am for opening morning of shrimp season. We figured it would be really busy right at 8am so we thought we take our time. We dropped our pots just south of Lopez Island in about 300 feet of water just as the crowd was thinning around 10am. We let them soak for about an hour, then pulled them. We caught our three limits in two pots. All shrimp were spot shrimp really nice sized.

After we caught our shrimp we headed to the Middle Bank to fish for halibut. We fished for several hours with no luck. But it was a beautiful day and it was just great to be out there knowing we already had a nice load of tasty shrimp in the cooler.
