2013 dipnetting for Kasilof reds

Just how many do we need to catch before we go home? 

This is 6 AM and the tide is going out still.

It is muddy and slippery work.
Quentin has one in his net now.

Not many people are out fishing at this time, but we are having real good luck.

Now more people are fishing as it is 2 or 3 in the afternoon.

Here comes Lonnie with a nice sized fish.

Everyone has a job to do.

Freezer filled up.  Getting ready for winter to come.

Halibut at Whiskey Gulch

Nice "chicken halibut" 

All geared up and ready to go. 

Not afraid to try new things and learn something new! 

Don't want this Skate...better get it off the line.

Try as I might, I could not catch my halibut :(       Next time!

Aunt Nancy comes to visit :)

So good to have my Sister here for a couple weeks
