One Lucky Chinook
« on: October 31, 2016, 07:47:32 AM »


Trolling for Salmon in the Port Alberni inlet and hooked up with a nice hatchery Chinook salmon on a Gibbs Delta G Force Bon Chovy Spoon 6 feet behind a Purple Crush flasher.  This was one of my favorite set ups this summer and turned out a lot of Springs for us.  Amazing weather and shorts fishing for salmon.  Can't beat it!

When my cousin's husband was still alive, he fished salmon for a living with longliner.  We would go out there and he would take us out.  Another cousin & her husband had the China Creek marina in the late 70's & early 80's, so needless to say, when we could not go out on the longliner, we had a "guide" from the marine take us out!!!  Great fishing, even when the seals would occasionally rob you of a hooked fish.
