Quick solo session
Submitted by Hutch on Wed, 2015-09-23 20:38
Hey crew, headed out for a couple hours solo this afternoon following a morning exam.
Trolled around for a bit until I saw some birds and a bust-up on the 3 mile. As soon as the lures went past the action both rods started screaming, double hookup on salmon!
Bullied the first one in on 50lb standup for a quick release before tending to the other which was on 20lb spin and had peeled a bit of line. They go bloody hard on the heavier gear. Kept the second one for bait.
Also managed a couple 49cm Dhus on plastics good fight on 6lb but still chasing that sized one on our boat.
All in all a couple nice hours, came back in just after sunset at 30kts in glass conditions

Haha nah, it's an old North
Haha nah, it's an old North shore 4.6. Probably a fair whack less stable than the LTD
