It was a cold day in early March, but it was a beautiful one none the less.
After getting the motor 100 hour service completed, we decided to get out for a little “Here fishy fishy!!”
We launched from the Ridgefield, WA ramp and had a short run to the Columbia River. DFW decided to close the lower Columbia from Warrior Rock down, so our favorite spot was not accessible. Our next goto spot would be Bachelor Island. We found a nice spot to snuggle up to the beach and set anchor. The water was a chilling 36 degrees and the wind was calm.
Wrapped the plugs with some good herring and floated them out about 60′. The rod tips had a nice rhythm going. Headed back into the cabin with the heat blasting and commenced to watching the rods.
After about 6 hours, the tide had turned and not a single bite. Maybe next time. 🙂
