Hello everyone,
What a season 2013 was. One for the ages, and although you always hear this from lodges and resorts, it truly was our best season ever. Chinook (King) fishing was the best we have ever seen. For almost all of June and July, limits by 930-10am. Some real good size too. August limits were no problem on Chinook until the end of the 3rd week, just not quite as quick as July and June but size is always a bit bigger! Halibut was the best we have ever seen as well, with 20 over 100lbs being caught including a 220lb halibut guided by Lane and a 260lb halibut guided by Dave Jr. This upcoming season halibut fishing should be even better, and from the way it looks, if they like, will be able to keep halibut any size. Should regulations not change, we are looking at other options but that is unlikely. Bottom fishing, as always, remained very strong. Limits of Yelloweye (Snapper) and Lingcod were always caught in a few short hours, our spots are spots that we alone go to, no one else even knows about them, especially for halibut and bottom fish, so only with us will you be able to experience some of the best bottomfishing and halibut fishing in the world.
Some memories of the year definitely include over 700lbs of fish per boat in one day, 260lb halibut that took us 2 1/2 hours to land, on one of the last days of the season "Mantracker" catching a gorgeous 48lb Chinook, and a great trip with Gary Winterton mid June that produced 3 great episodes of Hooked On Utah. If any of you have not seen the episodes but would like to, please let me know and I'll send you the link! Phenomenal fishing to say the least. Gary will be back Aug 5-7 this year and there are two other boats available for these dates, so if you'd like to be up with Gary while he films, let me know asap as these are prime dates and shouldn't last long! He is the exact same off the camera as on, great guy and lots of laughs.
We had over 44 guests from the AO forum this year, and we hope that this year we can add to that. We give an experience of a lifetime, and we hope that we can give you one this upcoming summer. Have several AO forum references for anyone that would like them as well.
We have only a couple dates left in August, and even less in July. Mid June there is some space, and as the past few years have shown, this is some of the best fishing all year for Chinook (Kings) and definitely my favourite time to fish, also when I guided to a 64lb Chinook a couple years ago!
Will post pictures below!
If you have ANY questions at all, please don't hesitate to ask, looking forward to the 2014 season already!
