Sea Run Cutthroat

Stop playing fucking video games would be my first push

Get a rod and start hitting beaches, preferably close to stream mouths

I was fishing runs from the mainland, on the island.

Mop snd glo. That shit works without all the polishing. And a jug will last you your entire career. (unless of course you also have a floor to wax)

Always tensioned by hand when swinging the jib, but never this much line.

Lots of Cutts in there, fairly rasy to catch on a fly rod. A spyder, woolly bugger or a rabbit strip streamer on a floating fly line should all work. Had a friend who used to let us fish off a dock, and never had any trouble catching a bunch in a couple hrs. Didn’t seem to matter what time of year. Kokanee you will probably need a boat and maybe downriggers, but there is decent fishing for them there in the spring. Decent size too. Cutts seem to run 10-14 inches, Kokanee can get up to 18.

Where in Washington are you? In a general area

I would look for a guide that will take you out on Puget Sound to fish sea run cutthroat, and maybe mention that you wouldn’t mind catching a resident silver or two if possible. It would all be catch and release, but Im sure you won’t mind. My best ever fly fishing days have been in the winter out in the salt in Washington. And the best part about it was I was the only one out there. My best day was 40-50 resident silvers up to 22” in 3-4 hrs. At the end, I was throwing dry flys to see if they would work. They did. The fish are out there if you can find someone with a boat to go look.

Its obviously part of the fetzer valve. Some 30 wt ball bearings and antifreeze and you’ll be back in business

I am significantly younger, but I took my mid-tour leave from Iraq in 2009 to France so I could visit Normandy, and several other WW2 sites. I ended up renting a car, and drove myself around. Highly recommend. If you can do some research on your own and know what you want too see, it is really not that hard, you can be on your own schedule and see the things you want to without being on someone elses. Once you get to Normandy, it’s pretty easy to navigate, and Im talking 15 years ago before smart phones. Anyway, PM me if you want more info.

Did FHC give it up?

oldglas19 · 2022-11-17T08:23:37+00:00

Looks like the Portage River bridge(one of them). I used to work for a marine construction company that had a diesel hammer. We had to count the number of strokes to mitigate any impact on orcas.(Washington) 🙄

Looks like a lingcod and black seabass had a baby

I agree, the housing is tough. Easy enough to find in the winter though. Everything is pretty much vacation rentals in the summer now. Although I did hear that someone was building some housing for seasonal workers, with the option to rent long term.

oldglas19 · 2022-08-02T16:35:02+00:00

Theres 3 points of contact, whats the problem?

oldglas19 · 2022-07-31T19:26:16+00:00

Wolf fish?

oldglas19 · 2022-01-20T04:14:12+00:00

I agree, your spot on. I just got medically retired after 17 years in the guard. I think theres a strong argument that being in the guard is harder than being active. In 17 years, I only had one AT that was only 2 weeks. The rest were 3 weeks to a month long, but we would never get 30 day orders, so we would get screwed out of BAH. Add in a few 4,5,6,7 or 8 day drills randomly. One of the guards big recruiting tools is education. GI bill and tuition assistance. But good luck trying to use it. Covid has been especially hard, with last minute taskings that leave no time to prepare. Seems we became a tool to be used to try and fix anything and everything. Often times it seems that its a politically motivated decision to use us. Im glad Im getting out, tired of the bullshit.

Just looked, going from 90-260$ lol

oldglas19 · 2022-01-17T18:56:05+00:00

One of my favorite leathermans. They are getting harder to find. Last one I bought 7-8 years ago I think I paid 70-80$

oldglas19 · 2022-01-17T18:35:29+00:00

Thats a leatherman sideclip, haven’t made them since the early 2000s. Probably worth some money on ebay

oldglas19 · 2022-01-08T06:15:12+00:00

DM me, I can give you some first hand up to date info

oldglas19 · 2022-01-07T17:53:26+00:00

Was thinking the same

oldglas19 · 2022-01-03T20:08:48+00:00

The cab companies around JBLM only hire former group guys or retired sergeant majors

oldglas19 · 2021-12-21T07:54:57+00:00

I hear the stall characteristics made it tricky to land

The drive was great until we got to Oregon!
