    Bottom fishing out of Ilwaco

    Tyboo is the resident whiz on fishing the lower Columbia and will probably chime in. I used to spend a fair bit of time fishing the mouth before I started spending summers in AK. We never fished the A jetty much but would hit the sunken part of the south jetty now and then and pick up some...

    Have you been to Martin Slough (Kalama WA) recently?

    i used to go there every now and then. You need to go down river and come back up to the lagoon favoring the freeway side of the channel. Don't try to enter from the upstream channel as there is a wing damn across it......and give the downstream point a wide berth, I saw a yacht teetering on...

    attaching stuff to cabin interior

    a ratcheting cargo bar that you would use in a pick up bed helps to hold pieces in place while the epoxy dries. https://www.harborfreight.com/ratchetin ... 8485b5e1c4

    well, the 8 braid didn't work to good in the Powerwinch Sportfish 450 windlass. The gypsy grabbed a hold of it to good, it would wrap around and jam up. I don't know if it was my windlass or the quality of the line that was causing the jam up but-. Now for plan B, going to splice up some nice...

    Lewmar Windlass

    boy Harvey, you aint joshin about anchoring in shallow water. You know they make dock lines that allow you to just tie off to the dock :) I've been using a free-fall, horizontal, windless for about ten years mainly on the Columbia river. We might anchor up several times a morning in search of...

    1/2" 8 strand nylon anchor line $0.66/foot my tired old anchor line isn't working to good in my windlass anymore. I wanted to try some 8 strand line but didn't want to gamble 100's of dollars that it would work well in my windlass. After scouring the internet I found a source for 1//2 8 strand...

    Recent WA restrictions - do they affect boat ramps?

    all of WA state parks and WDFW managed facilities are closed. County, city and private, who knows, check their web site or call. I just checked on the Port of Ridgefield ramp here on the Columbia and it was business as usual. As mentioned WDFG shut down all recreational fishing in the state, OR...

    Anchors aweigh!

    boy, it looks to me like that would be the perfect anchor for anchoring in side winds. On the Columbia and the charter boats in AK we attach the rode to the hole in the shank at the business end of the anchor and then zip tie or just tie off with ganion the chain to the hole where most folks...

    we'll be steaming out of Ridgefield too....if I get my lower unit back from the shop in time. I just got the old gal tucked into her slip only to discover after a few trips that the oil seal below the water pump has failed...... .I'm thinking that maybe if the lower unit isn't ready, I may just...
