LF,
When we lived in Wa. our club (Dry Side FF'ers) and South Sound FF'ers swapped an outing yearly. Nov. found us at Hoodsport for chums and spring found all in the basin near Lenore and Dry Falls for troutoids.
GRAND times were experienced by both clubs, for sure.
As with all else, I'm sure increased populations and thus increased interest and popularity have produced increased lines along the bay there. Got any photos of that.
As I remember, the flats near to and around Shelton offered a bit of solitude and chum success, at least then.
