Fish Stories

We left Roche Harbor early again this morning in pursuit of salmon.   Hoping we would get to the fishing grounds without coming across any more Orcas.  We fished around the Lime Kiln Light without much luck.

This is Dean's gear corner.  Fishing pole holder, outrigger and fishfinder. None of these are all that commonly found on sailboats.

Lime Kiln did not pay dividends and we had decided to cross the Strait of Juan de Fuca today so we rounded to the south side of San Juan Island to hit Eagle Point fishing grounds before crossing.  Just as we were giving up and pulling our lines in Dean got a bite.  Or rather a fish.  He was literally beginning to reel his line in when he caught this fish.

Woohoo! Salmon for dinner.
