Spent a nice Monday evening and Tuesday morning on Baker Lake.  It was nice talking with Rory again out on the lake. About 6:30am as Rory and I were talking, I got a nice hit and a few minutes later, I had a 25 inch sockeye in the yak.  Rory was kind enough to capture some of the action (my camera died).  Would love to see the pics Rory if you're willing to share. If you go to Baker, be prepared for some boat traffic (kind of like I-5 through Seattle during rush hour.)

sounds similar to Lake Washington sockeye seasons, when they have them.  Nice one, congrats!

that is the right and privilege of any free American."
