Went downto the beach and met up with Gringo Pescador, Quadfather, Howardi211, Fishndude for some good ol high tide pink salmon action.

Got there at 5:30, gate was closed and found Gringo waiting in his car. Gates opened around 5:40 and we were immediately out on the water.

First five minutes of getting there, we had a triple header! Quadfather and Gringo both had nice Coho salmon and I had a pink salmon on my line. First salmon ever for me so i near peed myself in excitement.

Unfortunately, it was the peeing that was the problem...last night's thai food didn't settle too well in my stomach so I had to run to the boys room.

Bite died off after that and I stayed out there til 10 AM or so with Howard and Fishndude and just enjoyed the water.

Anyway, looks like the pinks are starting to come in nice and thick from the reports I've been reading from Area 11 and the Creel report.

Didn't know you had a fish on until you started hollering. Then everyone in a 5 mile radius knew! It was fun just to watch you catch it. Good job!
