What an amazing couple of days! Probably over 60 fish to the boat with full limits (including me tagging fish) both days. Even got a double net picture with the Stacking Bodies Fishing LLC skirts and High Class Tackle Co. Spinner blades behind X2 Fishing flashers getting the fish to bite and the Talon Rods getting them in.

The ocean bite is mega right now... lots of wild fish too.  The coho rodeo is back on!

Lots of wild times today, including wild fish and a derelict crab line wrapped on my kicker. In the end we ended up with the best Coho of the season on the table!

How much a difference a day makes in the weather!

Took a break from salmon fishing today to catch up on some maintenance and some reading. Guess what I missed in the July issue of Northwest Fishing!

Thanks to Ryan Thies for catching this video of us getting a fish in the other day! We've been putting a hurt on them lately, even on the slower days. I expect to see quite a few more come into the system as the tides build. I gotta get Ryan on my boat now!

We had so much fun today with Sober Sailor on the sailboat today! Sadie even got in on the action. Catching salmon from a sailboat was a totally different experience, including hanging off the ladder in the back to get a net under them! We all went home with fish and ended up releasing some wilds as well. Bryan Joesph did an awesome job of hosting us. Tomorrow will be back on the Good Ju Ju for more salmon fun at Buoy 10, but today was a day to remember!
