2010 SALMON FORECAST
In 2009, the Coho were all the rage! They
were jumping in the boat.
The forecast for Coho in 2010 is not so
good. The Dept of Fish & Wildlife report that the Coho runs will be
down significantly from last year.
But, Wait! There's more...
The technical committee advising
Columbia River fishery managers has
released its forecast for the
2010 spring Chinook run.
"If the fish show up as projected, the
forecast of 470,000 spring
Chinook would be the largest
return to the Columbia since 1938."
The forecasted run is up
significantly from last year’s final run
of 169,300 fish.

Bottom Fishing
Isaac (above) is a perfect example of
why families love to go bottom fishing - kids catch fish using live
bait - a great way to introduce deep sea fishing to the next
generation. |

We
would be honored if you choose to bury your cremated loved one
at sea with us. Any arrangements can be accommodated.
Some
folks have fished all day and buried at the fishing site. Some
like to sprinkle the ashes on the way to fish. And, others like
us to take them out to the bay.
If
you're not interested in fishing, just a bar-crossing burial at
sea, the cost is: $300.
If you
already have a trip scheduled and wish to scatter ashes at sea
that day, there is no additional charge. If you bring your
clergy on this trip, we will not charge you for his/her passage.
You're
welcome to bring flowers to float along with the remains. For
