My first fall fish, in my first boat.

[jesters420]

It was a great day after I had to work! Grabbed my best fishing buddy. ( at least I catch more with him ) Just after 7 p.m. His rod hit while he was watching the fish finder. I saw it and was yelling at him dude! dude! Then he graciously gave me his rod so I could get the first Chinook on my boat. Going out again with him tomorrow and a friend that has never been. BOATS ARE GREAT!!!!!

great! those kings are a blast. heading out myself in a 1/2 hour for chinooks on the st. marys river as they are stacked up all over. should be fun.

Congrats, I have never caught a fish with my boat yet. The wife always want to go tubing and just boating with the grand kids. One day I will take the boat out myself and just fish.

I still haven't caught a fish with my boat but have caught plenty with my rod and reel. Hope you get many carefree outings with the craft.

Took my wife and a friend out for their first time on Wednesday and got them both hooked up with their first Chinook ever it was an incredible trip. Went out with my father in law and got him his first fall nook today then about a half hour later I caught my first silver in the CR. I am having a blast. going again tomorrow and Monday. This is just incredible, long live the boat! Long live fishing!

Hey my boat works as a great lure. Thanks for correcting me. Caught on my rod, landed in the boat! The best part of today was that when we put in it was late. We asked the warden that was checking fish at the dock and he said it was a poor day not many fish. We went out tried three times to squeeze into one of the hog lines but could not get it right. So we went up further than the lines, found a nice current low and wham the rod gets hit, I hook it and hand it off to my father in law. It burnt his thumb when it took off, but we were all by ourselves so we staid put and he got it to the boat with only two guys watching. 22.5 lbs! Chrome! Wow! About a half hour later the same rod goes off and I bring in an 8 lb hatchery silver. What a day! Out of about 30 boats we saw nothing else. I need to practice dropping in. It was frustrating.

Doesn't get any better than that. I'm happy for all of you. It's a lot more fun sharing a boat then just having a boat.
