Noah didn't have as exciting a summer as Aaron so we decided to head over to Westport to do some fishing in the big ocean for a late birthday present. We went out on a smaller charter boat (High Life) that was highly recommended by one of our neighbors who is a big fisherman. There were only six people including us fishing off the boat. We both hit our limit on rockfish (sea bass) pretty quickly. Unfortunately, it was a slow salmon day, and the boat only ended up with six salmon. Fortuunately, Noah caught three of them! And, they were the three biggest fish of the day.
We'd entered the daily fishing derby and when we got back to the dock we found out Noah's fish was in the lead! The winner typically wins a few hundred dollars so we had high hopes. Sadly, somebody from one of the other boats brought in a 14 pounder ten minutes before the cutoff and our hopes were dashed. Overall though it was a great day of fishing. We brought back a lot of poundage of fish!
