I didn't realize until today that Washington keeps separate records for rod/reel vs speargun. Turns out, I would have both records had I known!

After cancelling two offshore trips this year, I finally got a chance to run the boat in the ocean this weekend. We did about 90 miles on Friday, and about 50 miles on Saturday. Water conditions were our typical "north-south-easter" which is generally lumpy. Swell was 5 feet at 11 seconds...

Quite an eventful weekend in the big water this weekend. I landed a new state record lingcod that weighed 65 pounds. I didn't know that until after I butchered it so I will not get the record. The current record is 61 lbs set in the San Juans in 1986. We also got a 26 pound Sablefish. We also...

Long term. I will just take it out of the water to trailer to the fishing grounds and take home for occasional maintenance.

I'm going to get a slip for my TomCat in the next 6 months or so but will still be trailering the boat on occasion. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'll be DIY'ing this project after I figure out how to jack up a catamaran... Rob

Without a doubt....Sablefish.

Yes sir. My fuel burn figures I posted in the charts above reflect fuel burn totals for both engines based on the factory installed 2009 era Yamaha digital gauges.

I wanted to lower my planing speed as much as possible. I operate almost entirely in the ocean in the PNW and conditions aren't always favorable for using the TomCat's legs. I knew at the end of last year, I was either going for new stern lifting props, or Permatrims, or both. After several...
