Lake O Chinook

[Joeytier]

Out the door at 5 30, on the water just after 6. Fairly strong east winds were blowing for a good part of the morning, but was managable. After a slow start, I was finally into my first fish. He took a flasher/herring combo, and he weighed in at 26 pounds!

After some smaller fish, and a few good sized fish lost, we managed to land another large salmon. This time, the scale read 27 pounds, 15 ounces. We seriously considered taking it to the weigh scales, but guessed that it would fall just short. Regardless, a great fish and the biggest of the season thus far. At one point, he had 540 feet of line out! He was taken on a black/crushed ice Rac, which popped 3 fish today!

At the end of the day were 7 for 9.
