August 2nd- Halibut And Salmon Trip

The 4am forecast was not shaping the day to look pretty. The winds were calling for a SW 20kt, we decided to poke our nose out expecting the worst.  I was able to reach my destination without much weather.  We hooked into a few very nice fish at our first spot, a #85lbs and another at #100lbs.  After a few hours we were able to limit the boat out with a nice #25lbs average.  Halibut fishing didn't leave us much time for Salmon.  By the time we had reached the salmon grounds the bite was said to have died off, according to the fleet.  We tried for a bit but could only entice 3 to bite for us.  Salmon is definitely hit or miss right now but should turn on full force in August.

Looks like we have some good weather coming up and also some big tides.  Should be a great week of fishing for us here in Seward.  Thanks again FISH ON!!!
