Newly registered ( thought I'd done it years ago... ) and appreciate the knowledge shared on this forum.  I have several reels needing servicing and will be asking questions.   :)

Retired Army helicopter pilot/ instructor in 1986 and from Civil Service at FT Lewis WA in 2007.  Working on our boats (and honey do's ) when I'm not out using them.

High winds and waves are keeping me from making another Albacore Tuna run so will revert to salmon, crabs and whatever is open.

Living near Olympia WA since 1985.
