This fishing report in from our friend, Nicole Mangum, who is involved with us in Newport Police Department Volunteers and CERT. She and her family went salmon fishing a couple of weeks ago and she sent us these photos. I'm sure many of us can relate to being so sick we wanted to die . . . to forgetting all about it as we caught "the big one".

Here is our salmon fishing trip my family took 2 weeks ago. We had a great time, mostly. I got sea sick for the first time and Jessi said she'll never go on a boat again because she got sick pretty badly. But she slept and then woke up feeling just fine and ready to catch a big fish. Everyone on the boat caught their limits.
Salmon fishing is awesome!!

The biggest fish was probably 12 pounds (I caught that one, of course) hehehe. Jessi loved the fishing part not the sick part. Mitch was just happy to be there. We are ready to go again--on a clear, smooth water day.

At the August breakfast meeting of the LVH Fishing Club we had our usual breakfast, conversation and activity reports. We had a special report by Lee Fries on the status of the new NOAA facility. Lee has been attending the Port of Newport meetings and reporting to our Club on a regular basis for several months but since Newport had received the exciting news the day before our Fishing Club meeting that Newport would be the location of the new NOAA facility, his report was especially timely and exciting to us all. Thanks, Lee, for all your hard work and for answering all our questions. Good job!!

On July 23rd several members of the LVH Fishing Club had a very special tour. We visited Foul Weather Trawl Company. We were welcomed by Sara Skamser (The Trawl Goddess) who showed us the "almost" lost art of making and repairing fishing nets used by commercial fisherman. As the only business of its kind on the West Coast, Sara and her staff keep busy supplying commercial fishermen from Seattle to San Diego with these big and expensive nets. As impressed as we were by her business, I can only imagine how impressed and grateful her commercial fishing clients are. We are all lucky to have her here in Newport!

SOME REALLY GOOD NEWS >>>>>>>>>

NEWPORT HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN SELECTED BY NOAA >< AS IT’S NEW WEST COAST HOMEPORT !!!

 

Yep >< It’s Official >< Because Big Fish Hill informs me …. That he just heard the Mayor, Bill Bane & the General Manager of the Port, Don Mann announce it on our Local Radio Station ……… This is a Really Great Day & Terrific Stimulus for our City & Port of Newport.

 

This NOAA Decision is a Testimony to the many hours of Hard Work Done by the Ports General Manager, Don Mann & All of the Port Commissioners >>>>>>  One of whom is our very own Dean Fleck !!             

 

Watch for more details regarding NOAA’s Decision in the days to come >>>>>>

 

BRAVO ZULU >< To All of the Many People who Contributed their Time & Treasure to make this endeavor turnout so positively >>>>>
