The day’s are getting shorter as we move towards the Fall Equinox. If you wake up early, as we do on the MV Salmon Seeker, you can watch the beautiful sunrise which comes now close to six o’clock in the morning. There is nothing more spectacular than the rising sun in these northern latitudes.

Our guests set a new season record for the amount of fish caught. As a result we have booked an extra aircraft to assist in transporting this load.

The catch of the day was 11 Chinook, 17 Coho, 29 halibut and an assortment of bottom fish.

We have three new Masterfishermen to report:

• Jim Taylor of CA — 136 lb. halibut with guide Clayton Johnson
• Michael Bystrom of CO — 119 lb. halibut with guide Shawn Counts
• David Kremser of CO — 101 lb. halibut with guide Shawn Counts

The following guests were awarded Captain’s Clubs status, receiving their pin and certificate:

• Susan Patterson of CA — 42 lb. Chinook with guide Darren Dickenson
• Tony Campbell of VA — 39 lb. Chinook with guide Andy Doig
