Big Chinook and halibut streak

Langara Island Fishing Resorts - June 16, 2007
 

Our first 40 pounder hit the docks today caught by Ron Mcrae. Nice work!

Our impressive streak of eight days of hefty hali was extended with a 72lber caught by Mike Henning.

Cohos are showing up in more numbers every day and the wiley little Pinks have hit the island as well. Humpback whale shows are a daily occurrence now and Rocco the sea lion has been keeping us on our toes as well.

I’m making the prediction that the 40lber will not hold up as the derby winner for Neal Henning’s all Oregonian group — I’ll let you know in a couple days.
