Ahoy there one and all!

July is turning out to be one hot time for fishing! We have been catching limits of Rock fish almost every day. And the other days we have been catching some really great salmon! The salmon has really turned on with all the krill on the outside. Today I had to dodge both Humpback and Blue whales while trolling for the salmon. Watching them lung feeding on the krill was quite a site! We kept getting distracted by salmon biting the hooks and that was a really good thing! We were getting multiple hookups and there were some silvers mixed in which we can't keep. Even My regulars who were on board today (Wes and Terry) were helping out with all the pandemonium! We were flying through the baits and enjoying a good story or among us.

We were done by 11 am with full limits for the passengers and fortunately for the crew as well!

We have also been doing very well on the rock fishing. With some really great quality reds, black and lings. With a couple of kids on board this week it reminds me of one of my greatest pleasures is to see their eyes sparkle when they haul in a fish.

This is the time to get your rod and head out for some really great action either Salmon or Rock fishing!

You won't be disappointed!

Till next time!
