My gandson & son-in-law decided to take me fishing on Father’s Day. However, the day looked as though it might be a cold/rainy/windy or all of the above day. So at the last minute I called Captain Lou to see if he would take us out at the last minute. Amazingly, he was free in the afternoon and so we sealed the deal. Trip on! As it turned out the weather was warm, the sky slightly over cast and the wind was blowing about 2-3 knots; just about perfect! We met Captain Lou at the dock and loaded our gear and shoved off to try our luck. oh, I forgot to mention that all of us are rank beginners when it comes to fishing. On the way out to the selected spot, Lou got us all up to speed on the the safety gear and the boat in general. After this short familiarization, Lou set to work getting the trawling gear set and he took particular care to keep my 11-year old grandson involved by letting him choose the lures and telling him why he was doing all of the things needed to get ready to fish. Even before the boat was fully setup we got our firs strike which managed to get off the hook as we were not quite ready to start fishing. In the next hour and a half we landed four beautiful King salmon (see photos). My grandson fought his fish all the way to the transom by himself and Lou netted the fish and got it on board. After fishing Lou cleaned the fish and had my grandson help. On the way in Lou let the little guy drive the boat (a big added bonus for an 11-year old boy). To say we had a good time is a big understatement.
Follow Up - A couple of days later, I called my daughter to say hello and my grandson answered. He immediately told me that he had the rest of the Summer’s fishing all figured out. He had invited four of his friends and their father’s out for a day of fishing and all he had left to do was call Captain Lou and get things setup. I was forced to bring him down to earth a little by telling him that the maximum number that can be on the boat is six in including the captain. Always the problem solver, I was told that this was OK, we’d just go on more trips! Oh, to be young again.
