8-16-12



Today I guided Doug and Ishai for Salmon. We headed back to the Sacramento river today as there seems to be alot more fish over here. We started working our way up stream hitting all of the holes but there just weren't many fish in the system.  We finally made our way up river and found some fish so we set up to see what we could do. Within minutes Doug hooked a nice salmon and we fought it to the boat. We then went up and made another pass and it was Ishai's turn. This was his first ever salmon and after a little bit of coaching he fought the fish like a pro. This salmon was a screamer and as we were fighting it it jumped 5-6 feet out of the water several times, but some how the hooks managed to stay in and we soon had the fish in the box. We continued to work the area and hooked several more fish but never managed to land them. During the fight with the jumping fish Doug snapped a few photo's and some how managed to catch the fish in mid air. It was a cool photo so I put it up for all to see. In the end it was another great day on the water!
