First time I have ever filled my catchcard!   :tup: Have also gotten friends and family on another 30+ fish.

And today, caught a 24", 7 pound sockeye.   :drool:

Bringing some friends from NoCal out tomorrow, 16 fish, here we come.

Salt sockeye is on my bucket list. Care to share on what gear? Nice job!

Green/silver coho killer 40" behind a Q-cove break-away flasher, green.  Down at 40'.  He was with the pinks as we doubled on a pink at the same time.  Trolling with current at about 2 mph SOWater, just west of Eagle Point.

Only my second one out here through the years.

I know, I know....

Took some friends out today, neither she nor her son had salmon fished before.  Limited for four of us including two more SOCKEYE!!!!   :IBCOOL:

A sinkful of filets, 22 pounds of pink and 6 1/2 pounds of sockeye.

Caught the bigger sockeye on a pink mini hoochie and small white dodger 45 feet behind the boat.  The other was on a green/silver coho killer at 120 on the downrigger.  She was reeling in a tiny king and we saw a huge sockeye (pretty sure) follow it right up to the boat with its mouth open... another ten feet away and I think it would have grabbed the little king.

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.
