The salmon bite was frustrating today - fish jumping everywhere and hardly a one would bite...I trolled over 6 hours and only had two small shakers (undersized King Salmon), oh and one shark!!

But the bottom fishing for halibut and rock fish kept us alive, although there were a couple King salmon that hit the dock, including a real nice 24 pounder!!

Here are the pictures of today's catch!!















Hopefully we'll get some rain tomorrow and cool off a little so the fishing improves!!

Another fine day at Yes Bay Lodge in SE Alaska!!
