Last Salmon of the 2016 Season?

When I go fishing with Grand Master Fisherman (GMF) or PRO, I just know something magical is gonna happen.

Today, Ace and I met up with GMF at the Port at 12:30 PM to do some bass and striper fishing.  Ace was drifting live minnow, GMF was using swim bait and jigging, and I was using crank bait and jigging.

Not even half an hour in, Ace got a hit on the live minnow and landed a baby striper.  Since it was small, GMF instructed Ace to cut the fishing line and let the fish live.  Another half hour, Ace hooked into a black bass for a second....  The most exciting time of the day was 1:45 PM when GMF hooked into a salmon and boated it!  A piece of the tail of the salmon was bitten presumably by a sea lion.  So the salmon survived a sea lion, but did not get passed the Grand Master Fisherman!

There you have it.  We went bass fishing and landed a salmon instead.  What a great blessing because I'll take a salmon over a bass anytime.
