We hit the river about 9 a. m. , trolled through the tide change, hooked this nice 9lb 9oz. silver, I wanted to catch a salmon on a new rod and reel, a lamiglass XCC 934 composite downrigger rod and an Abu garcia record, # 61. I had won a $100 prize for big dolly at Quinalt a couple of years ago and used it for the reel, we didn't get up to the straits this year so no salmon fishing with a downrigger but I caught some nice bottomfish on it last year. Although I wasn't using a downrigger for this fish it was a great fight with only 1 1/2 oz. of lead and a small inline flasher. Waiting for the river to calm down may take a bit after all this rain.

Nice bright fish Bob! Definitely remember your Quinalt reports. Glad to hear your prize money was put to a good investment :-) Hopefully keeps giving you good returns.
