I am another new member and choose "Barviewrocks" because that is where I both fish and have a small house. I did not fish for salmon and steelhead for the past 6 years when they were in decline but I am back again. I wish I could go offshore with you but the only way I can get over being seasick is to catch fish (I canot always count on this . You will find me drifting the rivers, trolling the bay, and of coarse learning to fish the rocks.

I think I am about to learn something new if I ask this question. Why fish in the dark off the jetty? I've seen that jetty and it looks like a handfull in the daylite!
please in "lighten" me.....

Hey Barviewrocks:
As I am probably THE reason they call charter boats "Pukers", I have some info you might be interested in. I have tried it all in the last 25 years to be able to go to Big Blue. I always got sick no matter what the remedy. A friend of mine who is worse off than me (if that is possible) got a prescription for a drug called Meclizine. It works so well that I was able to get out to 20-mile reef and fish on a real marginal day and had lunch! Even thought that it would have been nice to have a beer with my sandwich. This stuff has made for much more pleasant outings. You need a doctors script and it's very cheap. I think I only paid 5-6 bucks for a 30 count bottle the last time and the stuff has a five year from now expiration. Best thing for me at least is it has no side effects. No dry mouth, no dizzy, no sleepies.

Tequila is a good substitute for dry clothes.

I am a person with a diease that is called Meniere's Diease and I get bad vertigo attacks and can hardly stand up on days. Nausea is my biggest problem with it.
Fishing the deep blue has become a no no for me. standing on land I can take the movement, but put my movement and the seas movement and I loose every time.
Meclazine is an over the counter drug, you can find it next to the Dramamine and the Bonnie. I know because I take it daily for my vertigo and nausea attacks I get daily. I also take diazapam (Valium), Donnatal (phenabarbatol) and I have tried Ginger, Food and everything else under the sun. Including the motion bands and the releif bands that shoot electrical current into your system to block the nausea feelings, NOT!! Nothing works for me. I've tried patches behind the ears, all medications and absoultly nothing works.
The only thing that does work is NOT going out on the deep blue.

I'm retired, having fun is MY JOB!!

I've heard an anecdotal statistic stated that some 80% of the population is affected by varying degrees of motion sickness.
So don't feel like the lone stranger if you chum at sea. Pssssst ... big secret here. It bothers me too. I just get all involved in the captain thing and ignore it. By the end of the summer it hardly bothers me, but that first trip every year is a ***** .
Kung pao chicken, extra ginger, ginger ale and on real ugly days dramamine. Hey I'm having to much fun to get sick, hand me the gaff hook!
