Finally ... a silver

It took about five hours, but I finally found a silver to take home for supper. Caught him at the end of Derby Cove, on the west side of Resurrection Bay. I was trolling a large herring on a #5 Pro-Troll helmet below a 3 oz banana weight, in about 35 ft of water. Great fun; great fight. Haven't stopped grinning. Maybe tomorrow.

   Great looking coho.I'm sure more are on their way to your net.Did kardinal-84 meet up with you ?

We were on our way in when I spied a kayaker moving sans paddle, and I knew it was him. I was so pleased to see that he was able to get some fishing time. By that time I had been out 8 hours already, so we chatted briefly before I went ashore. Very nice to see the happy couple.

Great looking fish! I'm hoping to get my first one in the fall. I'm sure it made for a great dinner. Just broiled skunk for me this weekend

awesome! I'm even more jealous now.

I thought you got one last year in Tillamook Bay.

Actually that was a nook, but thanks for the reminder

Thanks guys -- seems like the only fish I've been catching this month have Irish lords. So I was thrilled to connect with this handsome fella. While I was waiting for this one I saw five jumpers -- and watched an eagle snatch a pink from waters nearby. Looks like the leading edge of the run has arrived.

Thats a nice  fishey!  'bout a month away to start seriously fishing for chrome here. getting the jones already!

Sweet! Great to see ya on the water! That's an early silver! Great job! Only gets better from here on!!!! Off to Seattle tonight. Back Tuesday night. Hopefully the wall of reds show!!!

Awesome!   I fished Pony last Tuesday out of an 18' Woolridge and came away thinking that while I was glad to be in a sled out there, I cannot wait to get back home and give the salmon a shot out of the yak.  Great job!

Dang! Take a look at the rudder on that beast.
Nicely done!

Nice! Can't wait for my turn. Seems like summer is shooting by especially when you know the next weekend is booked up. I might be dippin reds next weekend but who knows. Might be stuck in town watching kids too.
