salmonquest Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Got out late Thursday night marked fish northeast of the anchorages between 70-90 fow. Went 2-2 nice 10-12 lb fish. Friday morning (unnecesarily early it turns out.) I don't know who posted about good fishing starting at 4am but it didn't pan out for me. Started in same spot. Went 2-3. Had to cool down a deeply upset skipper (me) after a ramjet net man (also me) lost a fish. My buddy had what was probably our nicest fish so far, right to the boat so I made sure to smack him in the head with the net (the fish not my buddy) and knock him off. I made up for it by missing the next fish twice before netting it. I stink as a net man. Finished with one 12lber in the boat and let an 8 in. laker go after giving him a ride for a half-hour. Overall 4-5 for the two trips with 3 nice salmon but most important got the skunk out. Thanks to Yoda for the great intel. Hopefully the fishing is going to pick up along with the weather.
salmonquest Posted August 17, 2009 Author Posted August 17, 2009 I like the size of the fish this year. All have been over 12# Here's my wife with hers. Of course she caught the bigger one.
