Sitka - Day 4 report

Here's a pic of our day 4 results. Back to Seattle with over 100 lbs of King and Coho salmon along with a mess of halibut!!!

What an awesome trip. Kudos to the folks at Angling Unlimited - they really took care of us.

What can I say? More king & coho salmon caught along with some halibut. Lots more wild life today including getting to see some orcas...

Sitka - Day 2 report

Another day of not being able to keep count of all the whales I saw. Also got to see an ocean otter today along with a few Sitka deer. Managed to catch a halibut and a King salmon today along with a bunch more coho's. I was the only one on the boat to catch a King - we're allowed one each - so tomorrow we're hoping that everyone catches their King...

We fished with Mt. Edgecombe in the background most of the day. It's an ancient volcano that reminds us that the edge of the Pacific is quite a hot spot of volcanic and techtonic activity. If you take a look at the picture below you'll see Mt. Edgecombe and at the water's edge you'll can see the old lava tubes of the volcano.

Sitka - Day 1 report

Sitka

Just click on the picture above and you will be taken to my Sitka album on Picasaweb. Lots of great shots of the fish we're catching, wildlife and scenery. It's official: I've lost count of all the eagles and whales I've seen just today. Truly awesome.

Just to wet your appetites and hopefully make a few of you jealous here's a few of the pics...

My catch so far: King (1) and Coho (1) salmon, halibut (2), sole (1) and a butt-ugly "pea" cod (1).
