This is the 4th time we've been there and each time it has become more fun. This year we hammered the salmon. On our 5 hour trip we had 7 fish to get with one hour to go. In that hour we caught 7 and 3 spit the hook. It was crazy! There were rods laying down because they didn't have time to rerig, at times there were 2 fish laying on the deck while 2 of us were reeling in fish. At one time the Captain said to the first mate "should we get the other net out". The 2nd day was just as fun as we caught our limit again. Our biggest fish for the trip was just under 30 pounds. definitely going back again. Great captain and first mate.
