Anyone fishing the Roche Derby next week in the San Juans. I am heading up on Wednesday (from Everett) with the admiral to bring back the $10,000 cash first prize. It is really a great event.

I saw in the paper today that it is $550 / boat and that includes some food. I think it starts this thursday.

Limited to 100 boats.

With all this rain lately the Sound in front of my place (Normandy Park ) is the color of a Starbucks drip coffee wth extra cream. However, the water will be a lot better up there. Good luck...I have heard that derby is a good time.

Hey tomictime...where do you live? I am just north of Poverty Bay( Normandy Park ) and lived in Des Moines for years..Had my boat in the marina - E Dock - for a long time.

Kathy and I fished with John Keiser (Salmon U) on Friday. We had our limit of 3 by 1:00pm. Didn't fish Satuday due to the brutal weather. Ended up with 2nd place in overall weight ! Silver Horde Coho killers behind a green/glow flasher did the trick. Right on the bottom is 120 ft of water.

Before I moved up the beach here to Normandy park I lived about 1/2 mile north of you on the water at a place called the Seashore Club. It is 13 small houses right on the sound just west of the Masonic nursing home. One of my neighbors from Des Moines is a long time yacht club member - Phil Hildebrandt -..small world. We looked at about 3 houses in Woodmont before buying on N Park.
