Great Salmon Day

[Joey]

We decided to give Lake Ontario another go today. We were expecting to boil out there, but with the nice wind, we kept relatively cool all day.

 

We ended up going 8 for 10. Couple of shakers, couple of nice ones and a monster right at the end. Paul had reeled in three lines while I was slowly motoring back to harbour and the last line was still out and Wham, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzziiiiiiiiinnnnnnnggggggg, tore off 150 feet of line. No horsing this fish and we netted her, measured, weighed and took a pic and back in she went, after a short revival. Just a beauty Salmon!!!!!

 

Heading out of the harbour, there were small fish jumping in our prop wash, and the gulls and terns were there to pick them off.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sweet Relief.......... get your minds out of the gutter

 

 

Gotta love an onboard wash down system

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not too much smog

 

 

 

 

 

Here she is, 40 inches, what a beaut!!!

Great pics and some really nice fish as well!! Nice going.

Bird shots were great, sailboat shot was great, fish report was great.

 

Those cool surface temperatures are making for a real nice breeze on the water eh. Then you get back to shore and it's scorching.

 

Cheers.

Thanks!!

 

Ya, you got that right about the cool temps out there, then the brutal reality of shore heat I figure it was way better to be out there than on shore today for a variety of reasons

[Cudz]

very cool pics and that fish is a monster!

Great salmon day is right! That's an absolute horse that Paul got. Glad you got out and those pics are superb!

I'm glad it worked out for yous. Been a few years since I fished that area and to be honest I was providing you with second hand, but reliable info that came from a fellow OFC'er. I hope he doesn't mind?
