The Most Dangerous Catch


OK, it wasn't all that dangerous but we saw their boat.  I took 10 days out of the Texas August heat to go fishing with Pete, Rex Reiley and Bob Gonzales in Alaska.  We fished 3 days for Halibut out of Homer, one day for shrimp out of Whittier and 3 days for Silver Salmon out of Seward.

Here's our best day's catch of halibut.  Pete has a great boat, is skilled in its use and got us into fish every day despite the bananas.  We also hired a charter for one day in Homer.

Here's one day's salmon catch in Seward.  We also saw whales, eagles, sharks and the occasional microbrewery and didn't need no stinking charter.
The four amigos and their boat.  You can see we had a variety of weather, but no 100 degree days. It was an excellent trip--great company, great experience.  If you ever feel like fishing in Alaska, call my brother Pete.
