Hit it hard on Wednesday with Tim and Don looking for salmon.  It was a coho-only affair, with a little stack of rockfish harvested as bycatch.  The odds in Salmon Lotto are getting longer, but the chance for a jackpot is still there.  It can be a tough game to play - hoping for another couple of touchdowns before the fourth quarter ends.

It's been an amazing salmon season with more 30 pounders than I've ever seen/heard of, and the bite close to shore has been off the hook at times and lasted for almost 2 months.  But...  I'm looking forward to getting back to 'normal'.

In the coming weeks I'll shift to big lingcod focus, and a Pacific halibut is on my radar too.  I've got a short list of locals who are ready to go remote when I see the right forecast, and I'll offer that option to others who book a date and have a FAC forecast come up on their day.  Catching and releasing a big ling (with some photos and vids for sure) or smashing an AOTY record are hot game along the Lost Coast.

See ya, NCKA.   :smt001

Being an honorable sportsman is way more important than what you catch.
