Peaceful Bay/Albany Salmon Trip

For the last couple of days me and mates headed down south for a much needed fishing trip, we went first to peaceful bay then Albany, we only went for 3 days so had to make the most of it by starting to fish as soon as we arrived.

The first day was quiet with only small fish destroying are bait, the second day we woke up early, but still nothing as we were on the wrong beach for salmon we then changed beach and by surprise I finally hooked my first salmon of the trip, a nice size too, we then decided to head back in and wake up early the next morning, around 4am as we heard they were running early mornings,

we then woke up early and arrived at the same beach around 4:30am and straight away my mate hooked a decent size salmon followed by me also hooking another one we had a blast, but the run was all over in 15min, so we decided to pack up and head to Albany since it was our last day we were hoping for some more salmon action,

when we arrived at Albany we headed straight out to salmon holes were we saw from the top of the stairs the salmon were running, and there were heaps, we went down and started to fish, within a few minutes my mate hooked his first salmon of the trip and then straight after I had another one, there was about 15 ppl fishing that day and everyone one was catching but I was the only one using lures and managed to hook a few more than most ppl, all up we ended up with 8 salmon for 3 days of fishing,

we had a BLAST!! and the salmon run was CRAZY!!

Good size ones there for sure. Now you gotta figure out to do with all that salmon!

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
