Crescent Bay

Still some fish around and aside from topwater and my wife and kids haven't had much company.  Area 6 opened yesterday for retention of all coho and chinook(22" min) but even the PBers weren't there to my surprise.  I know they are catching them out in the shipping lanes though.  Any how I managed about 7 hook ups, 1st fish was a nice big Blackmouth 10 or so lbs, I rushed him to the net and he shook off, then I lost a smaller coho.  Finally managed to net an 8 lb blackmouth and a bit later an 8 lb native coho.  My son got managed a couple blackmouth too, one keeper.  Was a nice day on the water,  at one point 3 porpoises went right around and under my kid.  My waterproof camera got dropped in the creek and stayed there for a bit and stopped working so I'm minus the picks.  Michagee, you should have stopped by, water was nice!

Thanks for the report!  Sounds like a fund day!  Bummer about your camera.

Man, that's alot of salmony action! Yeah I need to get down to area 6. Area 7 is tough right now. Mind if I ask what you were using?

No problema Rory, Various Jigs, almost always  Buzz Bombs are working well right now, sometimes Dungeness Stingers, Candlefish, Lurh-Jensen wounded Herring all are producing results at the present, tried a spoon, no hits, topwater bass lure produced a few fish, that was fun.  The action is slowing daily now but still good.  Get ahold of me if you come out.

Thanks man!  Yeah, I gotta leave town so the action will probably be gone by the time I get back.  I love fishing with those crippled herring.  The pink salmon hit it so hard it started to chip the paint off
