Fished HMB Cans with the rest of the fleet, I had to leave early so I got lucky and put in a nice 10 lb fish around 9 am 30' otw Straight Krome Kripple. Below there's a video of me fighting the salmon when my damn reel came flying off of the rod seat and the arm hits the free spool..... Felt like a rookie all over again... sigh.......

That's a feisty fish. Nice save.
-
Epic jumps, great save, and sashimi time! Congrats!
-
Was that a rooky move (forgetting to tighten reel)? Good save, especially by not dropping reel into the water!
-
Awesome blooper clip. Hell of a save!
-

Cool dash cam perspective on the video...
Gotta love the Hobie drive to power thru and keep tension on the fish
During reel mishap.
Nice catch.

Great job landing that fish even with the reel popped out. May I ask what kind of rod you have there?
Yesterday I too had a jumping salmon at hmb, but after a failing attempt to net it, it made another run, jumped and shook off. I felt if my rod wasn't so stiff it wouldn't have been able to throw the hook. It was a big fish too. Couldn't stop thinking about it.

Lucky13 be careful w those jumpers, they're mostly silvers Even the bigger ones tend to be acrobatic

That's really unfortunate Ernest and its happen to me many times in the past, the current Rod I started using this season with great success have been the lamiglas X-11.

Right on. Thanks for the info. I was doing some research and came up with the lamiglas x-11 and the g-loomis E6X.

X-11's are a nice graphite blank, but cheap reel seats! Had 2 X-11's pop the reel seats while fighting fish. Both have been since replaced with Okuma SST rods. A lot of shops stopped stocking the X-11's due to poor quality.

Thanks for the info, When I had my Abu on there I never had the problem of the reel unseating, this was the first trip I installed the Avet on the rod and I didn't install the rod clamp to the reel. Next trip I have to make sure that's installed.
