Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

Oh yeah I seen the ad for charters.
Nice boat !
I want to trade in our 2 (1) 16' and 1) 20 foot) and get a nice Duckworth or similar aluminum canopied salmon fishing boat with a nice outboard...our 20 is an old Ford V-8 I/O and I really hate it, nice ski-pleasure craft, fanatastic apholsery...LOL
Full of fish guts & hook rips, now, LOL
No good for fishing and Gary's talking about taking everything out, all the benches, seats, apholstery & making it a salmon boat, but with the engine in back, there is no way to run a troller or fish from the rear of the boat...no open bow either, gas tank is up there...I just want to sell it !

I call our boat my husbands mistress(aka a hole in the water where we throw all of our money!)... She gets the plastic surgery, Jewlery, and anything she needs! (New motors $100k, new props, and daily upkeep) I get the leftovers... I don't even eat fish! Lol

Awesome !
I'll bring lunch !
I also have all the needs for surgeries, including gut & scalples, but I just have not had time, probably due to building this house !
Wish you could come to the party tomorrow !

I can't say I actually KNOW how to caponize yet ... But The Drew and I are teaching ourselves with help from folks on the thread "Graphic pics of my day learning how to caponize" Anyhow that's what I think the thread is called? Yes. Here.

I'm just imagining a similar set up to a jeweler's ...... though I guess you wouldn't need the stone polisher

OK that's brilliant. And a reasonable price too.
Of course I've already got the tools and the cockerels ... all'z I need is the experience.
Somehow posting from my tablet screwed up the formatting here. But it's too much trouble to fix soo...
I absolutely recommend that thread on caponizing for anyone seriously interested. Stay away if you're squeamish. The OP is serious about the graphic pictures.
There's a BYC user on that thread named Poco Polo who does the ord

ering of the Chinese capon tools in a group occasionally. That's a massive help, as the Chinese tools are great, and Poco Polo gets a pretty good deal on them AND does all the hassle of handling the details regarding getting the order right and talking to the Chinese import/export guy.

Very cool idea. I would love to learn how to caponize but I don't really have a big enough area to take in the 10 roos in addition to the ones I already have
