The fish were chomping first thing this morning. As Capt. Bob put it, "the boat was lit up". Right off the bat we had four and five fish on at once. Only problem was that these were big fish, this was the first salmon experience for a lot of folks, and the weather was night and day different from yesterday. We were lucky to get one fish out of five even though with the action we had we easily should have had a fish per rod within the first hour of fishing. You name it, it happened: wrapped leaders, yanking on the rods, fish walked right into a tangle...absolute pandemonium. And to top it all off, the wind started howling again and the swell kept building as the day went on. If the weather was like yesterday, it probably would have been limit fishing. Would've, could've, should've... Anyway, it really does look like the fish have finally moved into our neck of the woods, so if we can get the weather to cooperate for a few days in a row, who knows.... The five day forecast is calling for the wind to continue, and tomorrow's trip on Sunday has been cancelled. We'll have to take it a day at a time to see if we'll be able to make it back out and hope the fish will be waiting for us.
