Hey Leland,
I tied about two dozen of your beach poopers this weekend and will take them
to Sekiu this Saturday. Are there still lots of fish left up there? I hope
the seas are calm since we are going up in a 18' aluminum boat. Were you
fishing the rips? How far from shore did you fish?
Curiously,
Patrick
