Camping, Kings and Coho! Salmon Fishing Puget Sound’s Beautiful Area 11. We’re Back!

[@bigkings.8804]

I liked your show. I've have been fishing that area since I was a kid. I have two motors at the bottom just around Clay banks. I must of been 18 years old. My hand on the tiller and there doing flipper. I've caught lots of kings and used to be a good true cod fishery twenty,thirty years ago. Big trues. Limit was 15 I liked your show and look forward to more fishing expeditions from you. I'm almost 70 now. And I appreciate your wisdom. Thank you.

Hey thanks so much for checking it out. I sure love hearing stories about how it “used to be”. Times sure change. I bet your outboards are not the only ones down there haha

[@jessetharp6319]

Does Ron snore? 😂

[@kensfishingtails]

Haha it wasn’t bad! He did kick me in the head a few times though. We quickly found out if you sleep head to toe there is a lot more room to stretch out.

@@kensfishingtails also, it’s nice to see I’m not the only one using bungee cords to keep the Bimini top working.

[@kensfishingtails]

@@markystewit blew out on me on the way to the boat launch! Luckily I got it stitched back up. Not as pretty as it was but it will work

Great day of fishing. Are you running a autopilot to keep on track while landing the fish?

[@kensfishingtails]

Thanks for checking out the video. I unfortunately am not running an autopilot. I find the best situation while landing a fish is to have a buddy who is experienced driving a boat keep the fish right where we want him. Generally this entails swearing and constant steering adjustments. When I’m by myself I end up fighting the fish and running back and forth to the helm. Most often than not I have to drive around other boats.

Did they just close 11 for the rest of the summer?!

[@kensfishingtails]

11 will re-open for a third time in August if I’m reading the bulletin correctly. This would be for Chinook, Coho and Pink Salmon.

I'm looking for a arima in the tacoma area if you know anyone!? 5-9k$

[@kensfishingtails]

Hey Rowland, I don’t know of any off hand but if I cross paths with one I will let you know! Were you looking at the Sea Hunter and Sea Chaser models?

[@rowland84outdoors11]

Was looking for a sea explorer. Wanted one with a cuddy big enough to sleep in with the wife.

[@rowland84outdoors11]

I want one with a cuddy big enough for the wife and I to sleep in overnight but want to stay under 17 feet to use the boat house elevator @kensfishingtails

[@robhealy7237]

What I’m getting out of this is that cuddling Ron the night before guarantees good fishing…

[@kensfishingtails]

Seems to be the ticket
