another rainy day but decided to brave it. caught a few rockfish, nothing huge but fun nonetheless. used a drop shot rig with some shrimp. fishing is always a good time, even when the weather sucks!

overcast day on the sound, not much action. only caught a couple of small cutthroats. tried trolling around with spoons but they weren't having it. still, being out here beats work any day. can't wait for sunnier days!

went out despite the patchy rain, it was chilly and kinda miserable... managed to pull in 2 flounders though, so all good! jigged with a white curly tail, they seemed to like it in the deeper spots. the rain just adds to the experience, right?
