It’s always exciting to see the fishing line tug & the reel start to zing when a salmon bites…it’s especially exciting when the rod flies out with the big fish… This past season guide Kyle was out at Dowling Point not far from the lodge when the rod ripped out of the holder & Kyle caught the rod with one hand. Once things were stabilized in the boat, Kirby Jr. played the big salmon well (let it run, tight line & rod tip up) & it weighed in at 47.5 lbs. This trophy fish was hooked on a spoon on the downrigger in 98′ of water. Congratulations to Kirby Jr. (catcher of big salmon) & Kyle (catcher of rod & netter of big salmon).
