a couple from last week
« on: Jan 23, 2014, 01:27 PM »
last two trips out not to much to show for it met some new friends and managed one laker about twenty inches and cut a 5 or 6 lb salmon off at the hole. God knows I praying for a big bow but no such luck. these photos are from earlier in the week. it hasn't been easy trying to get my hook into a Bigun lately but still fun trying.

That crappy might have been a record, Tommy fed his a Budweiser before he weighed it.

Nice fish guys !!!!  I seen you and clams at the circle last Saturday morning getting bait.  Looks like fishing was tuff for you guys.  Keep doing your time and you'll be rewarded.

I pulled it outta the hole and some guys pops outta his shanty about 80yds away and yell nice bass.. i just started laughing. I totally would have released it if I knew it wasn't a record but man was it close.

Monster....I heard tell of one caught in my are last year that was like 18-19"....I guess the guy just drove around with it in the back of his truck for a few days showing it to people, I'm guessing he was a trout guy and didn't really appreciate what he had.......the bait shop guy who saw it told him to get it weighed to see if was a record....don't think he did... ??? ???...pretty sure one 17"+ would be over 3lbs, and one with a huge girth like your fish, way over 3....awesome fish....thanks.... :tipup: :tipup: :tipup:

So close to the record.....




You forgot to mention us jigging up and trying cusk for the first time last week. Stayed late and got a bunch of small ones around  12" and kept one 18"1/2 to try. Tasty fish! I'll be targeting them some more.
