Salmon Fishing!

Went Salmon fishing with Steve and his Dad, Ken this past weekend out at Sekiu, WA. Great time as always. Didn't catch as many salmon this year as last but still tons of fun!

Ken's boat is docked and Steve and ken in the background. We were getting ready to go out this morning.

Took Twinkie along as it was an adventure out of the City. This is a view from the parking lot over the dock out into the Strait of Juan de Fuca.

On board Ken's boat. motoring out to open water. Ken's boat is great and the little cabinet is just tall enough to stand up in if the weather turns bad. He had it custom made so you could. Lots of room for 4 guys to fish and have plenty of moving room while bringing in the 'big one'!

Now, how scary is that! Salmon are as ugly as Halibut!

The catch of the day on Sunday. Caught 2 nice ones on Saturday but had to release them. They were Chinook or 'king' and were out of season. these are Coho, 'silvers'. Two 10 pounders, and one 15 pounder. Good eats, I guess.
