Had some nice fights on the lines this week end . Hit the water Friday later in the morning and was a little worried as I was hearing it was dead . Dropped the gear at the first mile marker and pointed it towards the Bell . My wife's bottom rod popped off just as we were off the second marker , 19lbs spring in the boat . Fish took the sockeye squirt at 85 feet. Things were off to a good start. Funny she hit the spring as I was running spring gear . Got re set and stayed in that area , trolled for a while longer and landed a sockeye going the other way . Later that afternoon I had my top rod at 60 feet release itself and before I knew it I was into a good fight . 40 min later I had a 34 lbs white . HELL of lot of spooling going on. On Sat. we went out around the same time and after trolling around for a hour or two my wife had her top rod just go savage, a while later she had her biggest fish ever, a 27 lbs white on spring gear down at 85 again. Markers to the bell seem to be producing if you put some time in. I would bet the cap will start going off any time now.
