I've been posting about my Pacific.. But I haven't posted about the boat I practically live on during the summers. It's a 27' Almar with twin 130's. Super nice boat that I captain for one of the finer lodges up here in Alaska. I spend most of my time on the outer coast of Prince of Wales fishing the open ocean. We fish in pretty much any weather and some summers we get pounded by the unpredictable Alaskan weather. I'll run this boat 70ish days this summer with 4 clients aboard most days. It's a fun challenge to keep finding limits daily despite what the weather and fish are doing.

Early August fish rack for 3 clients:
Fishing can be spectacular in my area if you stay on the fish. With a group of 4 clients the boat can bring in 4 King Salmon, 24 Coho Salmon, 8 Halibut, 4 Lingcod (1 or 2 Annual Limit per person..can't remember), 4 Red Snapper, (2 Annual limit per person) and 24 Black Bass. That is a load of fish! Most days we do fill out limits.
After a summer of slaying fish and waking up almost daily at 2AM, I am soo worn out and ready for hunting season. My first charter this year is May 20th, so it's coming quickly!
