Wind-East 15 knots. HUH?! It was way more than that while we were fishing but Montague Island protected us from any big waves and the fish were biting so we stayed.
Erica and her dad came up from Florida and did a great job of catching even though they were admitted amateurs. With a little coaching, Erica soon caught on and reeled in what looked to be about a 50 pound ling cod, too bad it was just four days before ling cod season opener! Leonard and Dick came looking for a few fish that were a bit bigger than their catch the day before on one of the military boats and went home smiling with a 76 and 38 pounder. Kevin and Marc played tag team on the jig for most of the day. Marc took to it pretty quick, even catching a gorgeous silver on it. While Kevin, being an old pro at it showed everyone how easy it was to catch fish using the jig. In the end the tide and wind started working against one another so we had to cut our trip short and went home two fish shy of a boat limit.

Uffda, my fishing has been tough the last couple days but with the help of our radios and the constant contact that we have with each others’ boats, I was able to get some info as to where the fish were and got us on some really nice 40 to 50 pound fish. Dennis and Paul stuck with me for the last two days and were able to take home some great pictures of all that Alaska has to offer including killer whales, great scenery, and of course pictures of their fish. Jacob and Larry took some time off from working on the new home in Willow to enjoy one of the most beautiful days we have had out on the water. The calm seas and sunshine made for some great fishing!

Lars returned to Seward after being gone for many years to do one of the things he loved to do when he lived here, get his line wet and catch some halibut with his brother. He and the rest of today’s crew waited patiently for most of the day before we finally found this nice rack of fish. Although the fishing may have been a bit tough we were rewarded at the end of the day with a really nice show by a pod of Orcas.

Orlando to Seward, it was a long way to come but Chris and Jamie have had quite a trip. Close encounters with Black Bears, Orcas, Fin whales and today some big halibut. Chris was hot on the jig catching and releasing many smaller halibut and then finally showing his fishing expertise when he landed a real nice 96 pounder. It wasn’t long after that, when Norm threw down a whole salmon carcass. It no sooner hit the bottom and a shooter halibut sucked it in. After a battle around the boat and a well fought fight we brought the 142 pound brut aboard. Smiles, ooohs, aaahhs and congratulations went around and back to fishing everyone went. Dan had a great day too, returning to fish with us from last years daily derby winner and found a pair of twins that weighed in around 50 pounds. Rick had to fight with Norm over his second keeper because the fish had taken both baits and was hooked by both fishermen. We finished out the rest of our limit with some nice chickens and called it a day.

Kevin and the Profish

They say a picture is worth a thousand words and with that said all I can add is chaos. Sally and Cameron joined their grand parents on the Profish-n-sea to celebrate their 10th birthdays. There were many fish caught and three were landed weighting around 100#. With very little help they both landed a fish weighing more then them. To end the day on even a higher note Cameron also landed a 28# king salmon (this one completely on his own!)

Oh those elusive kings. Lucky Archie had one on for a few seconds and it found a way to get loose. After an hour of trolling we decided to move to another spot only to be greeted by three or four Orcas. That was pretty much the end of our king fishing although Jeff kept us entertained reeling in a couple of Ling Cod towards the end of our troll. Our halibut fishing was more successful with Brian catching our top fish weighing in at 84 pounds. Ron stayed right in the game with Brian and caught a 78 pound ostrich followed by a real nice turkey. Phyllis caught a couple of really nice turkeys today after having the daily halibut derby winner break free from her loving grasp, and Mark finished off our day catching the last halibut late in the 9th inning after a long bite-free day for him.

M/V Pursuit with Capt. Steve
|
We had plenty of elbow room on the Pursuit today with only 6 anglers onboard. Nick and I landed these guys on steady halibut action today and they made the most of it by boating 5 fish in the 50 - 70 pound range. Michael - the lucky angler of the day - landed one that weighed in at 115 to take the day prize in the halibut derby.

Phyllis and Archie were back to fish again and Archie got right to business catching our only two kings. A real pro he is! Once at the halibut grounds we were greeted by a friendly little seal pup that must have lost his mother. While the pup was entertaining us a large halibut interrupted and took off with one of the baits. It was a short fight for Bruce as just minutes into the fight the line broke. Bruce kept up his spirit and later landed a nice 83 pounder. Bob showed us all that being a veteran fisherman helps and landed the big fish of the day, a nice thick 125 pounder. The rest of the crew filled out our catch with some average size chickens.

What great bunch of people I had today! Thank you all for your patience and positive attitude throughout our long day of fishing as the halibut remained elusive for the most part. We did finally find them at the chicken ranch. The kings did seem to be a bit more cooperative as we boated two of them at the end of the day.

The Outdoor Adventure Club had an adventure to remember for quite some time today. Brian had the most luck of the bunch catching a really nice thick 130 pounder, even though his bout of sea flu kept him a bit under the weather. Elana tried her best to jinx all of our luck by bringing banana sandwiches on board and wouldn’t you know it, as soon as she ate one the fish started biting. Even after she finished eating her banana sandwiches she still caught a couple of nice fish! Jillian did a great job of being patient as the big ones teased her, but she eventually won out! Although she didn’t catch one as big as she did in that other place that starts with an H, we showed her that there were lots of big fish in Seward! Not to mention, she had a lot more fun here! Tom, being the cheechako of the bunch, jumped on the fish like a Sourdough and pulled in some of the bigger fish. Tim was great on the jig and definitely did his share of the work while Dan was the holdout of the bunch waiting until the end of the day to fill out his limit.
