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)
