SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS
==============
We started at 5.30am and got a couple little ones early on the rigger,
my buddy got a 27 lb on the king of sting with a glow sd at about 8am
and the bite was slow for a while after that seeing a couple nice steelies.
after lunch we were back in the heat and around 4pm the downrigger with
the meat goes off, i grabbed the rod and held on as this fish almost spooled me
but some drag tightening and luck turned him around. i got him about 20ft from
the boat and we could see he was huge compared to the 27 earlier.He was just
crusing in when at about 5 ft from the net the flasher came out of the water
and somehow the hook just shook loose, i had tension on the line but the big
spinnie gave an inch of slack and he was free.i have never seen a salmon that
big and my brain was already cashing the cheque for new riggers and he was gone.
after some choice words we went back to work getting another 26 lb before the
lightning chased us home. ive lost big fish before but not ones that were worth
money so this one will hurt for a long time but at least we know we are doing something
right to see him in the first place. good luck and tightlines.
