Favourite picture from 2021 salmon season

[Adrenafin]

Here's a picture of my friend Cindy with a decent high teens spring from stamp narrows in the alberni inlet. We had a great evening bite and all by ourselves out there. You can tell by her smile that a fun time was had. I look forward to seeing all of your pictures and good luck to those still lucky enough to be still fishing pacific chrome!

Absolutely love to see the next generation enjoying their first experiences. Congratulations to you as a great Dad and to him as a great fisherman.

Not a salmon but my favorite pic of the fishing season. My kid chickened out on kissing his first Cabazon ... can't really blame him.

Two nice pictures you can almost feel their excitement.
Here’s my dad and son fighting a 25lb spring one generation passing on the to the next. First time in twenty five years of fishing the brain in Rupert I’ve been lucky enough to see it that calm.

Thats a nice sized fish ide be happy with a 25. I've caught 2 of that size. Lost the first one its a big fish it was in the net hook comes out it was able to overpower my right arm which was extended with the net. It swam right out! Then 10 minutes later I landed a 24lbs. This was 2019 off vancouver

I like these threads too so I'll bite.... Even though I'm sure I'll get flamed by posting a bloody fish picture on a fishing forum? The first picture was my son's first Tyee of 32lbs. Yes I know there is blood but it was a real heat of the moment picture. Great fight and an even better fish. Couldn't wipe the smile from his face all summer long after that. He is a champ on the rod now and a pretty good deck hand and co-captain. The second shot is from a fun morning with my parents. I don't get to do this with them as much as I would like but we always seem to boat some nice fish when we go out. My dad says my mom has always been the lucky one at fishing...

Nothing wrong with a little blood! Keep em coming boys!

Absolutely love it!!

This is why we fish. It's our own culture.

Well, maybe not as chrome as I would have liked, but my youngest kids first salmon meant the world to her, which meant the world to me. Casted, hooked and landed all by herself - got myself a good fishing buddy for many years to come. Loving this thread - great pics everyone!

Here's a photo from last night that captures the tenor of my experiences this year in the Tyee Pool.
I'm in my boat checking the engine after putting it back on after it basically fell off, while my two rod-gals are on the beach.
Sigh......



Details elsewhere.



Take care.
