Joey Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 Headed down early to see if the salmon would cooperate. We got a few, but only after we found the baitfish Saw a nice mass on the Lowrance and as soon as we went over it, whamo, fish on. Nice 34 incher. Forgot to mark the spot on the GPS so we trolled around the general area until we found them again, then marked it. Sure enough, not long after, I had a real fight on my hands. This one came in at 37 inches. I didn't weigh it just in case it was a good entry in the Salmon Derby, which, of course, I neglected to get an entry for again this year Man was it heavy tho. We tooled around the general area again going over the baitfish a few more times, but the bite seemed to have turned off. We decided to head back in after a few hours and Paul pulled up the first cannon ball set up, then the second, then the Dipsy, and just as he went to grab the last line, the Spin Doctor, the rod goes off Reeled in this nice one to finish off the day. Another 34 incher. The blood is a combination of the fish's and Paul's Got the hook in the finger, ouch. Took a few shots with the new camera just to test it out of the ducks waiting for the launch to clear. Decided to stop at JB's to see what was new and when we arrived, he had taken off for a Timmie's (for him and the neighbour store lady who advised us he'd be back in 5 minutes). So I played with the camera again, trying to get a pic of a plane coming in for a landing overhead. Our major purchase there was the new folding Musky net. Nice and easy to stow Cheers, Joey

Mike the Pike Posted July 20, 2009 Report Posted July 20, 2009 Ah nice report there Joey looks like you and Paul did very well in a short period of time. Oh I really love the new boat what a sweet ride. Hard to believe we have to dress this warm in July but it is what it is. I will be down to Burlington on the 1,2,3rd for some more salmon fun.
Bly Posted July 20, 2009 Report Posted July 20, 2009 Nice looking fish I know it's been said but I have to agree.....coats in July is just wrong. Hope you get to slime the new net soon and that Paul's finger is ok

darsky Posted July 20, 2009 Report Posted July 20, 2009 Joey-just curious what you paid for the net. I bought mine there too but was not entirely satisfied with what I paid for it. Cats Meow for muskie nets tho' .
Rattletrap2 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Posted July 21, 2009 Nice fish and report Joey! I hope from the photo of Paul, that they at least brought him a Timmies! LOL Does not look like the man likes to wait around!
danc Posted July 21, 2009 Report Posted July 21, 2009 It looks like life is treating you guys very well. I enjoyed the report and the photos Joey. Keep them coming.
DanD Posted July 21, 2009 Report Posted July 21, 2009 Took a few shots with the new camera just to test it out of the ducks waiting for the launch to clear. Talk about launch etiquette; even the ducks wait their turn. (sorry couldn’t resist) Great report and pictures. Dan.
