Hey Blue,

Yesterday’s birthday trip was a success, except for the catching fish part. Very nice day on the river with an old friend catching up and reminiscing about some of the mischief we got into. Fishing from 5 AM to around 12:30, I got the only (pretty anemic) takedown - the fish was gone before I got the rod out of the holder. We saw a few fish taken and more released (can only keep hatchery Salmon).

Looking forward to hearing where your daughter and new hubby fished and what guide(s) they used. I’m really hoping to head to Petersburg next year and see how many Salmon and crab we can murder, and if they had success near there, might book a halibut trip.
