My original plan for Memorial Day weekend was to load up the boat with fuel. Dakota and some camping gear.  Head out Friday night to English Bay

Priest Rock ~ Cape Kalekta

or Beaver Inlet and do some beach camping while hiking, fishing, exploring and relaxing and head back to town on Monday.  Well as is usually the case out this way, the weather on Friday and Saturday didn’t  work to my favor in regards to getting the boat out and through Unalga Pass.  So the first few days were spent in town just relaxing.

When Sunday rolled around the winds were down to almost nothing and the water was really flat.  It was time to get on the water.  Headed out of town and decided that a closer Kalekta Bay was the destination.  The water was fairly flat and the going was easy.  Fished around the bay with no luck.

To me it’s a little early for serious fishing.  The Halibut are deep and the Salmon are still a week or two away.  There is some good bottom fishing for some lesser known and fished species but I have yet to find them.  I’m working on it though.

Sunday was nice, spending nearly 10 hours on the water just cruising around the bays enjoying the day and weather.  Summer is almost here.
