Worked Hard For Them- July 24, 2014




Another Halibut and Salmon Combo Charter today on the Sea Quest.  We first tried to put the group on some nice sized Halibut at the Island but didn't get a big take downs.  The jigs managed to hook a few keeper Lingcod that put up a good fight in the strong current.  At about 11:30 we moved a few miles and drifted for some Salmon.  We caught a few on the first drift but the bite soon died off.  

We still needed around fifty halibut so we made a move across the Montague straights where we were able to get a good bite going in about 180' of water.  The boat was limited with small halibut by about 4pm.  There were also a few Silver Salmon on top of the Halibut grounds and some people were fortunate enough to catch a limit of 3 a piece.  Everyone on the boat worked extremely hard for their fish and did a great job at filling their bag limit just in time.  Good work everyone it was a pleasure fishing with you all.  What a fun group of people today. 


We have a private charter tomorrow and we look forward to some nice weather and hopefully some big halibut.  Stay tuned for a report tomorrow. FISH ON!!!
