-
this fish was in the ocean today!
-
flaky halibut
-
packaged and ready for freezer - this might last awhile
-
back to the port of Homer after a good day
-
he tossed the carcass back in the water - free food for other sea creatures
-
best pals (I have an awesome camera thanks to my best pal/husband)
-
rough life
-
hanging together
-
later we passed a "raft" of otters
-
cute little otter
-
we took a good bag of fish home
-
look at that fresh fish
-
of course he got in his afternoon nap
-
he knows what he is doing
-
Mikey filleted them on the back while we went back to land
-
we each got 2 - showing some off
-
Jason's favorite
-
not a bad way to spend the day (sun came out eventually too)
-
capt really loves the fish
-
2 in a row!
-
Ryan's first keeper
-
got a keeper finally
-
waiting for anothe bite
-
Irish Lord - not a keeper and not that cute
-
Jason's #2
-
another one snagged
-
Jason's first catch of the day
-
bring it on up
-
now we are reeling them in (capt had me throw a few back in hopes of bigger ones - each person has a 2 halibut limit per day)
-
no shotgun needed, just a beating by the captain
-
got thrown back - we watched the capts pole go overboard with a skate later in the day :(
-
just a skate - lot of work for nothing
-
ryan's got a big one
-
Captain holds up first fish of the day - it was thown back, but opened the flood gates
-
preparing the bait (looks like a "keeper" in the midwest)
-
hearty breakfast of (cinn/raisin) bagels and lox
-
it's a gray morning, but that keeps the waters calm
-
no caption needed
-
me and Jason
-
