We finished our season with an eventful two weeks in September. This was the busiest our September schedule has been, with nearly all eight boats running until the end of the season. The days became shorter and the fall chill was in the air. We were fortunate to hit a favorable stretch of weather allowing us…
We continue to fish the Cape when it allows, but with a consistent south wind, it hasn’t been easy. August has been a month of wind and rain. If the Cape allows, it’s the most productive area for salmon. If the wind blows us off the Cape, we’ve heading north, fishing Beaver Point, Shelikof Bay,…
We’re beginning that exciting time of year where the silvers are 15-18 pounds and they are hungry. The Cape has changed to mostly silvers, pinks, and shark action while we’re salmon fishing. Sometimes when we’re fishing, anglers will hook into a fish only to have the line go slack shortly after. Upon reeling in, they…
The rain didn’t seem to let up the last week of July and neither did the fishing. As we moved closer to August, the slight dip in silver action in the middle of July turned up to finish the month strong. Most boats are getting 15-20 silvers a day. And, the fish are growing each…
It was a busy week on the water for boat traffic with the official King salmon commercial trolling opener starting July 1. We had fantastic weather – partly cloudy, glass-like water, and long even swells. Kings have been reduced to one per day, per person now, with six annual still effective. But, they continue to…
During the past week, we had clear blue skies and flat seas that turned into windy, rainy, big water then back again. On the beautiful days, fishing was fast and comfortable at the Cape. Then, once stormy weather rolled in, everyone spread out to find their fish. Before the storm, kings and cohos were abundant…
During the past week, our groups have put in more time at a variety of spots to find their fish – it hasn’t been one go-to like in past weeks. The salmon are still feeding aggressively before and after tide change, but slack tide has been work. So, captains have taken our clients to multiple…
Over the past week, the bite has become more consistent. The salmon are feeding aggressively in the time window right before tide change. Most boats that capitalize on their opportunities within that timeframe have come in with their limit of fish. Our fleet spread out this week – some venturing north and some holding onto…
The final week of our season was the best it’s ever been. We ran six boats on September 9 for the first time in our history and ended on the 10th with three boats. We were fortunate to hit a favorable stretch of weather that allowed us to fish the open ocean wherever we pleased. Most groups experienced…
