Fished Sekiu with my buddy in my Seahawk from Thurs to Sunday. Object was both bottomfish and Chinooks. Good weather Thurs, Friday and Saturday, no wind, rain showers but my boat has good top. Didn't fish on Sunday, big wind. Three boats went out at 7AM all came back in 10 minutes, too rough.

Wound up getting three Chinooks, 9, 12 and 16. Lost a real nice one down towards Pillar. Line broke, I had used that rod for bfish and I think it may have had a rock nick in the line. Fished mostly between Kydaka Pt and the Bay, once down towards Pillar. Fished flashers/spoons first but they seemed to like flasher/squid, glo green, Ace High insert, one twinkle skirt and salted herring strip. 80-120 on the DR. Other guys I talked to did about the same, 2-3 fish per boat for their stay. Not as good as summer but not bad. I had to go considering this may be it for the year. Only 6-7 boats fishing salmon.

Kind of struck out on the bfish. Fished for bfish 5 hours on Friday and another 3 hours on Sat at various places between Sail Rock and Hoko. Got 6 Rockfish and one undersized Ling. Nobody else was getting any either. Some guys in two big boats were staying at Olsons and trailering down to Neah every day and they cleaned up at Duncan.

At least I used half a tank of old gas! Sorry, no pics.
