Half Day trip with Captain Chris Hoag
Half day trip with Captain Chris
My brother Adrian was visiting from Iowa and is a master fisherman and he had the time of his life as he pulled in tow nice salmon, a 12-13 pound King and a 3 pound Coho. We were so delighted and then Captain Chris put us over a school of bait fish and Adrian hit a a huge 25# plus Chinook. He worked his fanny off but we got it in the boat. Captain Chris dis everything he could to insure our success and I say he did an amazing job. You absolutely need to book with Chris Hoag if you are looking for the best fishing experience of your life. A five star rating isn’t nearly high enough! Thanks Chris, job well done.
