Shelter Cove - 8/21/21

Al and his son Luis picked up a couple of OK Tridents (a 13 and a 15), and they've been gearing up with much of the recommended immersion and safety equipment since late last year.  Al booked me up for a salmon focused trip on 8/21/21.  The salmon bite can come and go from day to day, and yesterday it was strong for us.  We hooked way more coho than Chinook, but we were happy to land 5 nice kings to 22 pounds for the day.

Taking a father and son out is a special time for me, and I'm always honored to be a part of making memories for my guests to take with them - along with fat sacks of the freshest fillets on the planet.

I'm hoping the bite lasts for a few more trips before the seasons change.

We love salmon for the challenge of hooking them and the thrill of fighting them, and their meat is a treasure.  The bigger reasons for continuing to go back are found in your heart.

What are you fishing for?

Those guys are beyond stoked

This is definitely true.  I used to get side tracked with catching the target fish in the past, but now I just focus on what is important to me, which is to just relax and enjoy my time out on the water.  Anything else is a bonus.  Thanks for the cove report Eric, I miss it every day.

I heard it went off today tons of bait in the cove!

Hell yeah! Hopefully the action holds through this weekend
