The waves were steady and as usual larger then predicted… we found fish immediately as we set down but the bite today was a pick. We boated 4 salmon, fired another 6 times but the fish came unglued. We moved in, dropped some light tackle and a downrigger rod fired and the line started to peel. After a long battle our friend Luis boated an 18.34 # freshwater drum. This fish hit a trolling spoon and took all the hooks in the mouth. It was an epic battle as the angler coaxed the fish from the depths to the net. What a great trip we had! The fishing wasn’t hot and heavy but we had our opportunities and just couldn’t keep them buttoned to the line. Thanks Luis! You and your wife were a blast to fish with.
