Queen of Hearts Fish Report 04-13-07

I was hoping Friday the 13th would mean bad luck for the fish, but alas it wasn't nearly as bad of luck for them as we wanted. One high point of today's trip was that the salmon that were hooked overall were nice size fish, most over 10 pounds, with the biggest tipping the scales at 20 pounds. We ended up landing five salmon, lost a couple of bombers and only shook one. The forecast is calling for the possibility of rain/showers tomorrow on Saturday, but that won't stop us from fishing...the ocean forecast looks fairly decent...but if you're joining us tomorrow, definitely bring along some raingear. Tomorrow's weather, though, does look like the calm before the storm. It appears that the springtime winds and swells are planning on kicking up their heals possibly as early as Sunday, but we'll have to play the wait and see game to see how it plays out. There is a wind and swell model website I watch that shows there may be a break on Tuesday that may allow us to take another stab at putting our lines in the water and tracking down some more salmon.

Morning Update: The weather forecast was downright rotten, but there was not a breath of wind at the harbor. Our hearty anglers knew fishing has been pretty spotty, but they also know that salmon fishing can change drastically from one day to the next, so they were up for the challenge. Capt. Bob headed up and out to get a better line on the weather before putting the lines in the water, and low and behold, we had our...... Read More
