We spend most of June and July chasing sockeye on big rivers which is not great for kids so in August we dedicate all our time to the kids catching fish. Took my oldest up to a popular creek to catch a pile of salmon. Pouring rain on Friday morning made it so we had the place to ourselves and he had a blast. He’s just under 4 yo so he had his rod for casting and then I would use another rod, get a fish on and make sure it was well hooked, give it plenty of slack and then give him the rod. He was under the impression that he hooked every fish. When we got home he told his mom how he caught all the fish (which he did) and that “Dad’s not a very good fisherman yet, but he’s gonna keep practicing to get better.” Hopefully this rain chills out by next weekend and we can get back out. Vis was very low and water was high. We've had another few inches since then with plenty more forecasted. A sure sign of sheep season opening is the subsequent flood advisories in place!

Here’s about a third of the fish from this week off the coast of San Diego. Super fun! I can’t wait to do it again.

My dad enjoyed his lunch catch yesterday.

Better than sandwich out of the cooler that I ate. Got skunked.

We were on the Aztec. I wouldn't hesitate to go back out with them again, great crew!

I’ll jump in! First photo is of a brown caught on the Yellowstone in Montana. The second is a healthy rainbow caught on the Truckee in CA. Both caught on a 5wt fly rod.

Dolly Varden trout on the Anchor River, Homer AK. Great day. Lost one I just landed to a bald eagle who swooped in for the steal.

Wife got a quick limit this morning… got out of dodge by 7am… now she needs to kill a bear this evening to round out her day, and I’ll be offshore chasing albacore the next 2 days… hoping for not much sleep tonight between packing her bear and getting up by 3 tomorrow

Nice, I like that grade of BFT, very catchable. Dorado have been going gang buster for a while now. Half day boats are even getting in on the action on the east side of Catalina Island.

I hate them sea lions!! I remember having my extra pole rigged up with a 4oz pyramid weight to cast at them when I was a kid, fishing the bank of the Columbia on Sauvie Island!
