Midchannel Friday Morn

With the forecast lookin' puffy on Saturday, we decided that we had better take advantage of a flat Friday forecast and an early morning high slack that we hoped would get a good 'ol Midchannel ebb tide bite going... We cut the lines at first light and had time to try a traditional flood spot with no luck so, it was time to run for Port Townsend!

That proved to be a good call as we had a couple chances on our first pass putting a decent one in the box!

My friends Lance Kent and Wayne Johnson put a couple more in the boat and just like that, we've got a limit!

Back at the Port of Everett, we cleaned our catch and were stunned by the amount of needlefish that these blackmouth were gorging on!

Not a huge surprise then that the Coho Killers, Needlefish hoochies and Ace-Hi's we were running were getting repeatedly bit!

The hottest piece of gear? Without question, the spoon sweetened with Pro-Cure's Downrigger Dynamite was dominant!

With the weather warming and sandlance or needlefish present in Admiralty Inlet, we're in for a solid spring on the Sound! See you out there! thumbup

Hey "Creek!?
You're referring to Pro-Cure's Downrigger Dynamite which we collaborated on with Phil Pirone; the Patriarch of Pro-Cure.

For years the industry has been trying to catch up to Phil's proprietary blend of amino acid bite stimulants that is the backbone of Pro-Cure's legendary Brine -N- Bite herring cure.

All Robbo and I did was suggest that this same technology should be available to the gear angler in the form of a baitfish scent and that was the idea behind this blend of herring, anchovie, sardine, UV and the aforementioned amino acids and BOOM! you've got DOWNRIGGER DYNAMITE tommygun

This is the first product bearing the logo of The Outdoor Line and if we didn't honestly believe it to be an effective product, we would have not lent our name to it.
Give it a drag....It will get you bit! cheers

I can attest to the power of the Downrigger Dynamite! All I know is that when I use it, I seem to be the only one getting bit.
