Wife's Ucluelet Chinook Video
« on: July 13, 2016, 08:24:17 AM »


This was our first time out to Ucluelet and we headed out in early June.  The weather was sunny but quite windy.  The first two days we stayed near shore and didn't catch a whole lot.  The last day I decided to head straight out to South bank and started covering ground.  Before long the rod and released and line was screaming off the drag.  Fish On!  Chinook salmon number one.  It wasn't fast in furious but we got out limit and I wouldn't say that is half bad for beginners out there on the wide open ocean if rough water.  I hope you enjoy this clip of my wife catching the big fish of the trip.   A beautiful Chinook Salmon on a Yamashita White Needlefish behind and lemon lime Gibbs Delta Flasher.

OK,, quit driving me crazy here lol..

Nice video Brandon. Couple more trips momma should have her sea legs about her lol. A trick I learned some years ago. When fighting a fish or doing chores in the boat in a big swell or bad chop, lock a knee against the gunell or a chair it keeps you moving with the boat instead of against it.

Yeah that's what I usually try to do.  Have one knee or leg against part of the boat.   I'll let her know thanks.
