Title: Putting a few Salmon in the new boat!
Post by: C-Money on August 19, 2014, 07:17:59 AM: We had a good time on the Columbia putting a few fish in the freezer. When I got my boat, I really wanted to fish salmon, and it sure was a great time. My kids got their first salmon, and my wife enjoyed getting a few! Great feeling seeing the joy on everyone's faces! We put one hatchery king in the boat, and released a few good size wild kings at the boat. Looking forward to fishing the reach!

It looks like they ran pretty good!
I didn't catch any sockeye this year sadly (Barbless hooks are really getting me) :bash:
But we got the fall kings coming up too!
