It was clear jigging was the productive method that day and I wish they'd have switched more rods over to this, but they're somewhat handcuffed due to the large number of people on board which is the main reason I gave a 4 and not 5. The crew were great at trying to keep spirits up despite the poor luck. We still had fun thanks to good weather and that we got to see a few whales.

Salmon fishing was significantly less than normal . Halibut fishing was the same . Came back home with about 70 lbs of filets . Halibut sells for about $30.00 a lb so $2100. 00 worth of fish . Filled our freezer . Easy fishing , getting to the point I don't want 3 hr boat rides so it's great to be fishing here in 20 minutes . Cant beat the scenery. Mostly calm water since we're fishing in a inlet . Fishing shallow water. So no 15 min reeling in a small fish to release it afterwards.

There's potable water and pit toilets as well. The wall to the beach is BRUTAL- 4 WHEEL DRIVE IS HIGHLY RECOMMEND and you cannot make it in a RV.
