July 3rd - 2010 - Batman's Boat Hits a Home Run!!

It was a very rainy day today and tough fishing. The King bite was slow and so were most of the other salmon, although if you stuck with it long enough there was an assortment of fish to go around. With the Holiday weekend the Lodge is packed full and everyone is anticipating our annual fire works show and a great BBQ. A traditional 4th of July at Yes Bay.

Batman's boat hit the ground running today with a nice assortment of salmon in the morning, a nice king a couple nice Chum and a few pinks for the morning catch, then in the afternoon after a nice warm dry lunch he hit a real nice King and then pounded the bottom for a real nice 97 plus pound halibut!! A great catch!!

Here are the pictures to prove it!!

Morning:



Afternoon:



The rest of us had hit and miss bites all day with most all boats getting a few nice salmon, including some nice Kings and a couple silvers thrown in for good measure.















Happy 4th of July to everyone and look for fireworks pictures - weather permitting tomorrow!!

A great day fishing at Yes Bay Lodge in SE Alaska!
