Nice fish! Beautiful scenery as well.

Hey Danny I got a question for you. Theres a creek that runs out of Chuckanut Drive down by Taylor Seafoods? Do you know the name of that creek and is it a open creek? It empties right on their property. (Taylors) Its south of larabee state park.

A quick search on google maps shows that it may be Oyster Creek? Not sure if this is the one you were talking about or not, or if it is open, just an observation.

I bet its Oyster Creek because it dumps into the Oyster beds. Its a small creek but Im sure there is a chum and coho running in it. Ive seen guys cast out by the mouth but never in the creek itself.
