What a weekend! 100's of Chinook caught & released daily, 7 tyee's, 2 over 40, sharks on the line, great halibut with a couple of 100+ releases. Its the best fishing in the world right now...maybe a little too good as I've just had a guest say this morning that it was slow (after their 8 double headers yesterday afternoon) to which my guide responded "slow, it was steady action all morning"...but the bar has been raised and how easliy we forget those shifts where you only get a couple of hits.
lets begin with a docile creature and your arrival in Masset...
Followed by a sparkling arrival at the OP...
Glen and Cory enjoying the start of their trip.
Then its off into the abyss with Jason, Peter and Dave...
Where you'll find a bunch of these in short order...
Such perfect healthy fish, Jason with one in its prime...
Glen and Cory pose with a beauty...
Bob, Sr. Yeller and Ol' Yeller hoisting the bounty of the sea...
Glen plays dead with his perfect day out...
Ohh...Dave got a big one...
that will go 40
..."We think this one is bigger!"...
Jody, Rob and Glen show up Dave's fish by a couple of pounds...
Keep your eye on the rod Tip!
Glen thinks he's into a monster...Guide Peter...thinks he's really into a monster...
Peter was right...
Salmon sharks...lots of them, hitting the spoons and plugs. These awesome shots were taken with Pete's gopro camera, it shows a BIG shark hooked on a his favorite superior spoon...
...subsequently the spoon ended up with the shark.
There were so many sharks around that you had to be quick otherwise a nice fish like this (well done by the way Steve)...
...quickly becomes a fish like this...
or like these...
Now thats adventure on the high seas!
Ray you should have been here with the FLY ROD!
Lots of big fish this trip and not all of them ended up bitten in half, here's Dave releasing a 37 in the bay...
What a weekend, from one to ten that was an 11.
And on the Krud table...Yeller makes it a hat trick beating out his old man in the final...
...no mercy here!
