Great Afternoon after a Busy Morning of Fishing Even Though the Captain was Worn Out and Tired!!

Well I may be getting older but I still can handle a pair of Sport-Fishing charters in one day – as long as I have my trusty First Mate Steve along.  Long day but very rewarding.  Nice group of local guys out for a bachelor party.  Congrats Corey and enjoy the wedding this coming weekend.  I am sure you will make the Lucky Lady the happiest woman in Allegan County.  Another successful afternoon.

Ended up catching Five Fish with the highlight being a last minute fourth and long catch of a 20.5 pound King Salmon.  With only three rods left in the water a speeding King took a low dipsy out only 100 feet in 80 foot of water.  He, yes he (where are these large males coming from – usually males are smaller than females), busted out on a heavy drag run for over 200 feet of line.  We were lucky to have only a couple more lines to reel in and backed down Florida Style to catch another lunker hooked in the corner of his mouth.  This always makes them more difficult as they go on a twisty roll that creates a lot more weight.  Good job on the line Nick.  Congrats Corey and have a happy marriage.

Always remember the Capts marriage advice that works for Fishing too.  If they are fighting go easy on the line, works for marriages too.  Ok I am not a marriage counselor but works for Fish.
