Salmon trip

[2 Tollers]

Just got back from a trip up to Haida Gwaii --- fishing was slow and the weather conditions tough for the first 3 days. Got this on the last day and my biggest salmon to date girth 28 length 43

Shane I was on it for about 30 minutes. Several huge long deep runs. It would have been longer but at the end another boat called that a sea lion had slipped in the water and was headed our way. The guide yelled get the fish in here now. So I put as much pressure on as I could and we got lucky in netting it a little early. It weighs an even 44. Very good work by the guide on the net.

Yes the I am starting to find a balance on the retirement side. Staying a little active consulting and more active with the things I like to do. Good idea on a workout day with the dogs. Need to plan a day when the temps drop. I will be starting to take a few chukar / pheasant trips July / August as tune up.
