Last year I netted my personal best salmon while trolling the IS on independence day - this year on the 4th my wife one upped me! We ended up going 6 for 6 (1 Salmon and 5 Lakers). Trolled 70-75 feet down in 100FOW - all fish came off blue/silver spoons.
23" and 6+#

Always cool to see the ladies hauling in the big fish. Congrats on the personal best at 6+ pounds. The smile says it all.
