Instead of an Easter egg hunt on Sunday morning, I decided to take the family on a coho hunt instead. It was great morning with light northwest to north winds; quite an improvement over Saturday's 20 mph blow from the east which caused me to abandon Saturday's trip.

The morning did not start out too well with me snapping off my powerline anchor. After tying on a new one, I shanked my second throw by hitting the ground on my backswing. Attempt number three turned out fine. After baiting up,I send my line out and catch coho #1 after 15 minutes. My son hooks and pulls in a 2# coho maybe 30 minutes later. I then land a 3# brown which had hit when I was sending the line out again.

For the day, we had about 10 hits with 3 caught on crawlers and two caught on tinsel jigs tipped with an alewife strip fishing one line. Here's the morning's catch:

Family, the outdoors, and fish. What better way is there to spend a morning?
