Fishing Report Week Ending 6/26/11

Fishing was fair this past week. There's no doubt that you had to put your time in to catch a king. Every day we landed a fish and some days we caught two. There's been no consistency with the bite. Some times it happened in the morning, sometimes during the afternoon. Other days it would be on the incoming tide and then the next it was the low tide. One day all the action would be on a spin 'n glo and the next it was kwikfish. A bit frustrating but at least everyone stayed interested until the very end.

One thing that has been nice is the size of the fish. The photo above is Kasey with a 50lb buck.

Here's Kasey's brother in law, Eric, with a nice 30lb hen.

Here's Judy struggling to lift a nice 30lb hen.

Finally, here's Karl with a 28lb buck.

This next week I anticipate the bite to be about the same. However, on July 1st the Kenai opens to bait and the action, whether trout or salmon, should be the best of the year.

One last thing. Charlene gets the "Atta Girl" award for spending three days in the boat without a bite. That hasn't deterred her in the least and she said she is coming back to do it all over again.
