Reel Reports
Loads of hali and big Chinook
Canadian Princess Resort - August 8, 2006I tell ya, this season has been unreal for halibut catches.
Ling cod as are still coming in in record numbers, as well.
Salmon are coming in in beautiful sizes, too, with many over-30-lbers coming in every day. The water color is turning to a great color for salmon fishing, which is a slightly brown tinge.
Our coolers are ready for the loads… bring it on!
