Background
Being on the water and enjoying paradise while creating lifelong memories for the client is what I live for! Let’s get out there and find those fish!
Techniques
We mostly salmon fish by trolling with downrigger to get down deep to find the large ones, but jigging is also a very fun way to catch salmon. We also jig, drift and spin cast for bottom fish (Lingcod, Rock Cod, Flounders and the occasional Halibut)
