Bad News

Well I got it today... I got a job and have to go back to work [img]graemlins/berry.gif[/img] Have been unemployed since June 18th due to a RIF (reduction in force)
But with unemployment and Severance the cash flow has not been a problem, severeance does run out in December but I had a Chesnimus elk hunt planned. That is out now, I guess I should not complain

but that is life. Got till the 11th to get after some Halibut, Tuna and some nooks, so if anyone needs a extra hand give me a PM or email. I am just kidding about the bad news, just want to get out one (or more) more time this year before going to work for Weyerhauser.
Thanks to all the Salty dog's who have already extended themselves and took me fishing, you guy's are great, You gals too, sorry Nancy

Tim, congratulations on the good news! We had better watch what we say when we "wish we had more time to go fishing." The mortgage company, the electric & gas co, the city, the refuse co, the insurance co, none of them seem to want to trade frozen halibut fillets or canned tuna for the monthly bill. Imagine that! Well, now you'll be back to "weekend warrior." Don't worry though, the weather is almost always nice on the weekends. It only blows on WP's days off.

Ok Aqua-Holic you out there???
I need a halibut fix next friday, just can't take the thought of going back to work without at least one more shot at them there flat ones :shocked: .
So Dean if you need a person that you don't know to tag along on a flat fish tour let me know. Hope you don't mind if I suck up a little though :grin:

Damned wind and seas! I use to think that weekdays were better to have off....this year I am not so sure!

Don't worry Dave this is just an unusual year! The ocean's definitely usually better on weekdays. Plus the docks aren't as crowded!
Sorry about your vacation being over crambone

. Iused to work at GM and they would lay us off for five weeks every August for model changeover. I sure miss those long summer vacations! :depressed:

Hey Tim...congrats on the job. I didn't go out to far this weekend and as you can see... came home a day early due to the winds . Some scuttlebutt (not to be confused with Halibutt) is that some nice Chinook were taken on the Pile Friday and I overheard the Blitz say on the radio that he got 12 (I think) tuna 38 miles out Saturday. I didn't hear much about the Halibut catch. Fish checker said it had been slow all weekend. Next weekend is out........I have to go to Cali. I'll let you know after that.
