The College Club group (all 7, 6 new) left Sitka saying they liked AU so much that they will want the same time next year. They all had fished several other resorts in Alaska, and said Angling Unlimited is the best yet! For 2 days we even had a #4 in our boat with Captain David (DJ) who fished with 4 other outfits in Sitka during a month stay who loved it enough to say he wants to come back to join our group next year. And that was after the sea lions twice ate his king salmon. Captain David and his deckhand Tony got raves!

We did have another great trip.  You folks have your act together, and spread the word to all that we are grateful for the excellent service and feeling of family that we get with Angling Unlimited.

The highlight of our trip was Monday afternoon.  Actually let’s go back a few hours.  The tide was moving against us, and even though we were a bit soft on kings, Capt Phil suggested we call it and head out for halibut.  We readily agreed as he had already won our confidence.  A quick check on the radio to Capt Ben indicated the honey hole was open with no bears about, and the halibut came quickly with a crank, crank, crank!  So now Capt Phil remembers that sometimes there is a afternoon bite right after the tide change.  We slip into  _________ (secret place) and begin the GPS mambo.  Move a little left, move a little right, put your big bow in, and take your skinny stern out, and wow, see that bait on the screen!  Check the wind, check the drift, and get your bait in the water.  The next hour was epic with two quads, a triple, and 13 kings to the boat.  And no lost fish.  We filled the cooler and released the rest, including we think, three over 30#.  Now that’s fishing, with not a sea lion in sight!

Next day we did almost the same thing, hitting three nice fish right before the closing whistle. Say no more the crew was awesome!

Now, any chance for a second boat the same time next year?  I am hearing from a lot of jealous friends……

Tight lines,

Ron
