First Salmon from the Pier for '09

[farsider]

I managed this one last Friday morning using a Moonshine Lures glow spoon. So far there hasn't been any real numbers seen or caught.

 

Special thanks to Dave-the-net-man who took these pics and was cool enough to email them along to me.

 

 

 

Cheers,

Congrads on the catch!

Beautiful fish! Must have given you a work out!

Congrats on the catch! It has been really tough fishing from the boat, let alone the piers.

 

That's a great reward for the long hours usually put in from the piers, enjoy it bud!

Nice catch man. Been trying my luck at the piers on and off for the past few weeks with no luck. Glad to see you found them.

WTG! It's definitely been slim pickings so far, i've only managed one myself. Nice going, hopefully more to come.

Exellence! Have to start calling them salmon the fish of a thousand casts. I know i've put my time casting in this fall, well worth it though.

Lol :lol: :lol:

 

 

It's definitely been a hard scratch season in the west end, atleast that fish still looks fairly fresh. Every one I've seen this week have been sliding towards the "boot" category.

Nice going, looks mid morning/mid day when you were fishing?

Ever think to get out late at night or early morning?

a little off topic, recognized you by your pic, you were at the board walk last sat and i noticed the guy you are talking to had 2 rods/lines on the water. hope you are not buddies with this poacher,.

But was he sitting in an inflatable boat?

Nice! Thanks for the evidence to prove that there are actually some fish out there.
