One picture of your last outing.

18# 8 oz Salmon on Lake Michigan. That took about 15 mins ( maybe longer 🤷🏼‍♂️) to get on the boat! The initial run peeled at least 350’ of line, probably more, but I didn’t look at the line counter (485’) until I had been slowly working the fish back in for some time. Netting a fish of that size by yourself requires you to hold your mouth just right! The swim step makes that a lot easier as well.
