Trip Report Camping at Deception Pass

[Porter]

Weekday heaven....view from Pine Bluff and evening stroll near the beach.

Do any fishing?

Fish that beach

I grew up playing on those trails and beaches. Beautiful and thanks for sharing!

Did I fish? Yeah and no. I had plans. I hit the beach early the first morning but developed a terrible case of tennis elbow after a couple hours of casting. Had two hits but nothing to hand. Several others gear fishing and plenty of boats. I have had this elbow thing act up on me before a couple times but it was years ago. I played ball later that day with my girls and I couldn’t throw to save my life. So that was it for me. I was really looking forward to the evening fishing and also hitting a Bay over there. Got in some good boot work tho and great camp food.

Also last morning two rangers showed up at our campsite. Evidently we had been camping with a skunk in our brush. The camping neighbor 20 yards away complained to them about the skunk we didn’t know about. I just wonder if first night of my beer and western style baked beans led to attractive after market product? First night I usually get happy....then calmer evenings after that.

you need to give up the tennis - it's just not worth it

Beautiful area. I don't hang out there nearly enough.
