Went out this evening with my son for an hour and half. Mostly just to try out our “ new to me” boat and work out any kinks. Big upgrade from our last boat.
Beautiful evening out there. Dead calm and the sun came out. Got into a couple undersized fish on spoons.

Got out tonight 5:30-8:00 with the family. Beautiful evening out on the water. Fished fingers down to neck point and back. Got one beautiful 15 lb plus hatchery spring released to live another day. 120’ on the rigger, white glow hochie, in front of the fingers. Awesome fight. Also couple undersized on spoons.

Been fishing of the fingers for the past 5hrs, plenty of shaker nooks to the boat a couple possible keepers and one hatch ho in the box. Gotta go got one on!!
Ended the day with the one coho and hooked up on what would have been a keeper chinook.
hope tomorrow is as good.

Happy Father’s Day to all!
Went out for a quick two hour Father’s Day fish off the Fingers this afternoon. Nothing for us. No bites. Lots and lots of bait on the sounder. Couple of huge bait balls.
good times with the family though. And that’s what it is all about.

Went out for a couple hours later this morning. Quite rough for most of this. Family was not too impressed with me.
Good action out there. Herring Aid coho killer was hot. Couple undersized. Missed a few hard hits. Pretty sure had couple keeper hatch coho’s to the boat but I was second guessing myself and released them thinking they were springs. Didn’t want to net them so just kept them in the water and released them with flick of the pliers. 80’ on the rigger off the fingers. Quite fast, 3-3.5 mph.

Nice. My crew (Da Boss) made me turn around half way out and return to the harbor

Yeah it was rough. Surprised my family stuck it out. It did seem calm down around 12:00 as we were about to head in.
