Meet Linda and John. Linda does housekeeping at the lodge, and is originally from Ketchikan. John is one of the guides (2nd year at Yes Bay) and from Oregon. I hang out with these two quite a bit in the evenings. (We've taught John to play yahtzee!)
Today I got to spend the afternoon fishing with Linda and John. It was a beautiful afternoon, warm temperature and hardly no wind. Since that means the water was calm, I asked to go Halibut fishing. To Halibut fish, you jig fish at about 250+ feet of water, bouncing your weight and bait off the bottom.
I was looking for my 100# Halibut, but caught a shark instead!
(Looks pretty funny with my bait still hanging out of it's mouth!).
John just clubbed it a few times to kill it and we threw it back in.
Hopefully, I will have better luck next time.
Love from AK!
