4hr charter
The not so favorable weather forecast didn't deter this family from Ferndale, WA. Our plan was to fish offshore for salmon and then try for bottomfish so we trolled for just over an hour and had no bites, the sounder had not been marking much feed or fish so we decided to try for bottomfish. Our luck changed with rockfish action as we drifted some pinnacles. After catching our limit, we tried trolling for salmon in another area but again had no luck so we decided to call it a day.
Total catch - 5 Black, 4 Copper & 3 Vermillion rockfish

6hr charter / Hot Springs trip
Today was the 1st of 2 charter days booked and our plan was to spend the day at Hot Springs Cove for some R & R. While my guests were soaking in the springs, I went for a quick halibut fish and caught one just around the corner from the dock! When my guests returned, they were surprised to see a beauty 23lb halibut laying on the deck.
Total catch - 1 - 23lb halibut
