Re: Garibaldi ocean conditions please?
Went out at daybreak this morning. Bar wasn't bad and seas were lumpy. My sled is not eqipped for that big water but I did drop in the gear at 147 feet trolling NW by Twin Rocks. Went out as far as 190' then turned and head with the rip. My rod went slamming down @ 157' with a nice 10 full-finned model released from 22 pulls. Continued onward toward the jetties, then at 145' another fish that was clipped! [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
The wind came up, and we got out of dodge.
Went North to NEHALEM BAY...NOT THE PLACE TO BE. The fish checker there reported one fish taken for the whole week! (That was on tues. caught by Rip some Lips)
Anyway, most of the fleet has been getting fish way out in 150-300' of water the past few days. I'm not going out that far in an open sled.
The wind has been coming up hard around 11:00 or so, then it can get nasty.
Good Luck!
