Title: MA3 Kings 8/7/13
Post by: robodad on August 07, 2013, 10:23:37 PM: Had a really good day fishing today, we caught round 15 kings and don't know how many coho's and humpies, ended up keeping 3 kings in the teens and another one in the mid 20's !! one of them turns out is a white king which I have heard is better eating then the "normal" ones !! :dunno:

Trolling !

I don't think you could get any kind of bait through that wall of silvers that kept yanking my gear off the downrigger every time I let it down !!

Epic would be a fair assessment, it was a freekin blast for sure !!

Yeah Kris does have pretty good luck with salmon but when it comes to halibut he just plain sucks ass !!!

Post by: sirmissalot on August 08, 2013, 07:50:48 AM: Nice fricken work. I keep hearing compass rose and shark fin area have been on fire... Wish I could have made it back up there but now with tuna around it makes it tough to put the downriggers back on.

Way to get it done :tup:

The fishing for kings has been too good, so the limits for kings are being cut in half in MA3 and MA4.
