Well glad you and the Hawg had a good and bouncy sucessfull trip to the pile today (yesterday).
No wonder your disc is ruptured. :grin:
I ran into Gene and Mark from Bend this evening at South Beach and the story goes that they lent you the 4 fish for your pic's. :grin:
Here's the pic's of them with a couple of their beaut's.
Actually if you want me to be truthful I was on my way from Newport to Waldport and I decided to stop off at South Beach to see if I saw any ifisher's hanging around. Natta.
I did see these two gents fileting some fish at the marina filet station. As always I throw out some kind of comment about ifish to see if they respond (in case they are ifisher's) and often times they do and I meet some more ifisher's that way.
This time was a tad bit different! They told me that they had met a fisherman this morning at the bait or fuel dock that was an ifisher and he had an ugly green boat. I started bustin' up and told them I have fished with that knuckle head. :grin:
Anyhow Mark told me that Brad had befriended them and told them to give him a hollar on 78 while out there.
Guess they did and Brad got unusually lucky and was into some fish. :grin: By the time they got there Brad and the wild dawg were 'bout done.
Guess there is some blanks to fill in but evedently Brad left them at Happy Jack's Fish Farm and Mark & Gene ended up with a 35#, a 34#, and two 20# chinooks. But that isn't all! They said they caught about 70 (seventy) salmon in all (mostly chinook). Kept releasing 20#+ nookers trying to get some more of those 35# brutes like there first ones but finally had to settle for a couple of the smaller 20 pounders. Bummer.
When I asked them how deep they were fishing they said between 100 and 200 feet. When I asked them what they were using they said it didn't matter. They finally quit using hoochies and bait and started using plugs and spoons and said they would hit anything down there. The spoons were the non coyote type as they didn't have any.
So those were Brad's fish in his picture and he put a couple of Oregon boys from Bend on some nice fish at the south end of the pile and a day they will never forget.
I gave Mark and Gene the ifish.net address and instructions and my email also even though they are not PC buffs but they will get their pic's through a friend of theirs that is on the net.
Nice job Brad and Hawg for putting these two nice guys on some nice fish.
PS> By the way, when they pointed out their boat I thought I was looking at the Pacific Princess or Mark's (Fish Asassin) boat. Another catamaran.
