Tuna Tuesday from Coos Bay

tailchaser · 07-11-2005, 09:49 AM

We're looking at making an early morning run on tuesday before the wind kicks up in the afternoon. Anyone game to tag along? From the reports, the boats from Windy Bay are scoring a little better, so we'll be heading NW, and come in with the wind in the afternoon for a nicer ride. Probably depart at 5 am from Charleston. The more boats, the better to find the fish.

Well the mission just took a turn for the worst. Several boats headed out today only to get kicked back from the weather that wasn't supposed to hit until late tomorrow afternoon, so it's a bust already. Man, it's just not our year on the S.Coast so far. We have the water, just not the weather to cooperate. Anyhow, looks like a few 'nooks in the morning and back to work.

Tailchaser please refresh my memory on the low cost Ice place in Coos Bay. I was there once but cannot remmember where it is. . Thanks Mark

The place is Arctic Ice, however thanks to the commercial fleet they're pretty touchy on who they give leftover shavings to. As usual, a few ruined it for most. But you can still get some if you're nice and not asking for 15 coolers for 5 bucks like the commercial guys started to. Anyhow, that's where to go.

Looks like Monday is a go at this point. How'd it go at the Doc's Dave? Up for some charnage? Who else is going? If the prediction holds, I'm going out at 5:30 and heading NW, will monitor Ch 19.

Looks like Monday has been down graded (5 & 5

). Plus the TUNA! water is swinging out in a big hurry. Looks like we're in a holding pattern until things shake out. Glad to hear you're back's feel'n better, Dave

Oh well, it's got to stop blow'n some time, right

Guess I can always go into work instead
