Went out this morning out of koket resort trolling for salmon wasn't having any luck then got a bite not even 50 yards from the dock! Lost it trying to reel (I think my drag was too loose to get a good set) so I reeled in and sat there for a min only to have a fish jump out the water right next to me!  So I thought I need to put back in now. Put the line back out and not 30 seconds later got another bite!!  Reeled this one in got it to the boat and couldn't get my net around it. It dives hard comes up again and missed the net another 3 times before I was finally able to net it!!!  Yeah my first fish out of the kayak!!!

It's nice when the fish cooperate and give you a second or third chance to catch them.  Enjoy your catch.
