Windy Day




Wind blew hard today and we just fished thru it. They measured the highest gust around 44 mph. Only a few fish caught. We caught and tagged 13 lb sea run brown, but not a lot of other fish caught. There is a big issue here with overfishing, even where it is all catch and release. I will go into some detail about this in another post.

We did meet with the researchers from University of Montana today who are doing the ecosystem study here. This is year 3 of the study and they have tagged over 6,000 fish plus taken scale samples for age and environmental conditions.

Pretty tired = 11pm and we got back about 20 minutes ago. Dinner is soon and I am gonna crash. More soon. Best to all.
