Thanks! Yeah man, gas is hella costly, need my crew to help out, lol. I’ve got some Sekiu time lined up and I’m gonna try to get out via Westport as much as I can before shrimping season
Thanks! Honestly, if you know what you’re doing you may not need a fish finder… I would want Navionics or something to know where I am on the bar. It’s all about fishing near the bottom at the right depth. For mooching / jigging I would want a fish finder so I can see concentrations of bait / fish…
Thanks man! I use about 48-52”. Yeah coho like stuff whipping around faster than chinook, but honestly these blackmouth are so actively feeding they will take a lot of terminal gear. It’s more about location, hitting bottom and speed
Good job man, always great when crappy conditions pay off. You mentioned brain fog - did you catch Omicron? My whole family in Bremerton has it right now, and they are all vaxxed.
I like how you film a commentary that goes along with the video it’s very informative and effective. Hopefully it’s constructive but having the camera on your head while you’re on the boat is really tough to watch. Lots of movement. Maybe it would be better if you place that camera on top of the boat canopy, or in some other location? Possibly combination of two, like add chest or head camera? In any case nicely done thanks for Sharin’ keep them coming
Thank you! Yeah, I’m trying to transition from that filming practice for salmon trolling as I do so much looking around it tough to get good stable footage. I’ve now got a camera mount on my boat like you said, and I’ve got a chest camera strap so it’s not as jumpy. Some of my more recent videos feature that approach. Thanks for taking the time to comment and provide this feedback!
Thanks for posting such amazing content. I'm looking into moving to Washington and this content makes me so much more excited to move.
Oh awesome! The PNW is the best!
Congratulations on your new boat man love the North River
Thank you 🙏 Yeah, this new boat is a lot of fun and capable of many fisheries
Appreciate you keeping em wet, most people in boats don't do that. I try my best but haven't done as well as I would like
Yeah, can be a challenge especially in rougher water!
Nice boat! excited to watch how your seasons go. I was hoping to go most weekends this spring/summer but with gas.. idk lol

Good deal man. The weather doesn’t look too bad
Yeah it layer down considerably during all the footage I captured. A bit annoying that even though I hit record the bad weather footage didn’t make it
Great video! do you think a fish finder is a necessity for this fishery? Are jigging and mooching effective? Thank you

@@PNWBestLife awesome!! Thanks for the tips!!
Awesome video, quick question what size leader length do you recommend that is best for black mouth fishing ?
Thanks! I do a 48” leader for those helmets. About 42” for spoons.
@@PNWBestLife thanks!! I’m planning to head out for blackmouth this upcoming season, hopefully will be able to hook up
Nice! I will keep writing about it and making videos and share what I learn 🙏
Great video, how long of leader do you use for anchovy? For coho, I would use around 30-36 inches

I’m frequently brain fogged for no hood reason, 😂 . Sorry about the fam, hope they’re not too sick.
Weather looks fine to me
It mellowed out
