Title: Got the Kids out !
Post by: Hardy Boy on July 31, 2019, 08:16:14 PM
Well not really kids any more !!; the daughter and her boy friend are up for a few days and wanted to get out fishing. Weather was for calm sees with some showers. Started great, calm with high cloud, a 16 lb spring right off of the bat, then a nice coho, a bunch of shakers and then another coho all in less than two hours. Then the rain came and through a damper on things. Then it rained and rained, daughter had enough after an hour of that. I said one pass down to the point and then we go, get to the point ready to go and bang she gets a 15 lber. Going to try again tomorrow. They have 18 packages of salmon for the winter now ...................... fingers crossed for tomorrow. No fire hazard here this summer !!

Mine has crap everywhere when I'm fishing.

Sounds like a productive outing

Gotta love those last minute "fish on" bites. It almost makes you want to keep fishing

Are you fishing out by the Duval lodge area aka "the wall" ??

Todd, your daughter may be lucky at fishing, but she's also extremely lucky in that she resembles Jeanette.  ;D
Cheers,
GA Mike

Todd , amigo looks like a great fishing even with the rain, I have had great fishing trips with rain damping everything but thats part of the experience of enjoying the outdoors

18 packs of salmon for winter, dang!! I love salmon but the only place I can catch it is in the freezer of Costco store. :-\

Took them out again yesterday morning and got a few more fish. Got the daughters boy friend into a little better grade of fish for one of them at least (22 lbs). Still no danger of a forest fire here !! Good fight.


Cheers:

Todd
