Shrimpers…Drop…Your…Pots! (read like “start your engines!”). We have another awesome spot shrimp season in Puget Sound. Check out this blog post for all of the shrimpy details you need to put the best tasting critter in Puget Sound on your boat this year.
Hood Canal offers some of the most scenic crabbing and fishing in the entire Pacific Northwest. We share all about our successful trip for Dungeness crab and flounder on scenic Hood Canal in October 2020
The beaches north of Grays Harbor such as Ocean Shores and further north to Copalis are incredible places to explore, hike, and experience. Because these are a few hours away though, you need a good base of operations, and the Driftwood RV Resort and Campground near Copalis provided just such a place.
Camping and fishing Neah Bay for a prime week in July/August? This fishing trip report is a must-read! We had an incredible time catching limits of salmon and bottom fish in the Neah Bay and Sekiu area.
There are so many reasons to camp near Hood Canal. The scenery is pretty awesome for one. We camped at “Scenic Beach State Park”, it is aptly named as the view across the canal to the Olympic Mountains is just incredible.
I’ve been spending way too much idle time glancing at Facebook posts of all the salmon being caught out in Sekiu. Ahhh! It’s killing me to not be back out there. We had an epic time though on the opener and it sounds like it has been absolutely packed with people since then. This report is about what’s going on closer to home though, so let’s dig in!
Last summer on a trip to Puerto Vallarta my friend and I stayed with her aunt and uncle. This is basically his recipe. He served it on tostadas in a way I had never had, but was delicious. We spread mayo on the tostada before adding the ceviche and toppings. I swear it is incredible. Everyone I have ever served has said so.
WDFW has announced the exact details for the opening of the 2020 Winter Puget Sound crab season. There won’t be as many folks on the water and the crab will be larger with more meat on them.
Time to get more tasty Dungeness crab!
A recent trip report from our shrimping trip in the Strait of Juan de Fuca on June 1st, 2020. Read about where to catch spot shrimp a short run from John Wayne Marina.
What is it about shrimping that captures so much of the passion and energy of the Puget Sound outdoor enthusiast?
Is it that these are the best-tasting critters in our local waters? Or is it the “closet deadliest catch persona” we all have buried deep within us somewhere?
Whatever it is, it is clear, that we love our spot shrimp and the process of catching them. The much anticipated 2020 Puget Sound Spot Shrimp Season has been announced, let’s get to the details!
