Wow, this weekend started out on fire and ended in a brake down.

2. mag green dolphin silver streak on a 12 coler core
   
3. moon shine double trouble 65 down on a rigger
   
4. blue bubble set up 140 out on a low diver

6. area 51 nitro as a slider 55 down on a rigger
   
7. metalic glow frog silver steak on a 15 color core{HOT WE RAN 2}
   

SATERDAY MORNING

I left the ramp a 6 am with a friend from work and his 2 sons that have never fished for salmon, NOW THIS WAS A BLAST. Watching these 2 boys catch there very first ever salmon and BIG LAKER.

We ran the same exact spread as the nite before and ended the morning at 12:30 going 21 for 25, with 2 coho, 1 stealhead, 1 17 lb laker and 17 kings from 8 to 19.6 lbs {3 were shakers that were released}

Here are a few pics from Saturday.

This is the boys with 1 of many doubles that morning.

And this is the result, a 14 lb king and a near 17 lb king.

And this is the catch.

Now for sunday I left the dock around the same time as on Saturday and headed for the same area as the 2 previous day's with rdfishin and Doug from the day before. We had to work a little harder for the catch, but ended the day 13 for I think 19 with 1 stealhead, 1 coho and 11 kings (1 shaker) released.

The spread did not change the entire weekend (we ran the same spoons and flashers the whole time), but the fish continued to move out and down. Sunday we ended the morning finding our fish in 180 to 200 fow.

Here is a pic of the catch.

Well as i said, a BREAK DOWN, did occur, Monday morning I arrived at the ramp a 6 am and found out that i need to replace a tilt motor

Oh well, im only going to be down 'til next weekend, i hope, as this is what the mechanic told me.

Thank's to all of the people I had as a crew this weekend it was A BALL!

WTG Terry and crew. I like fishing with kids. I hope the Dog is back up and running quickly. It's always something when you own a boat.

[Sea-Mac]

Nice Job Terry and crews!

I've lost my boat for at least a week as well. Bro in law has it up to L. Gogebic, been having nightmares of it not coming back in one piece.

Very nice work Terry. Great weekend.

[bluedevil]

Great Job Terry..

Its nice to see others getting the next generation of fisherman hooked..

The best thing I love about salmon fishing is taking newbie's out (especially kids) and watching there face when that fish takes a big run. Its worth every penny I have spent on gear.
