This was a Trip I went to visit some of my fishing friends Patti & Dennis Heikkinen from Marinette Michigan on 8-20-05 thru 8-25-05 just before Hurricane Katrina Hit Home. My brother calls me and told me that I should come home because we were going to get this one!!! It was a beautiful sunrise a little cold and ruff. The Light house was a great site on the way out!!! We were fishing in the FINN LANDER Driven by Captain Dennis Heikkinen on board was his wife Patti and I. He had all kind of down riggers and lures that I had never fish with. We were fishing in the Great Lakes and Green Bay. They do things a little different than in Louisiana. By the way they fished with me several times in Louisiana and invited me up to their place and this was a trip of a Life Time!!! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!! King Salmon!!!
Plenty for the SMOKER!!! The meat is just the brightest Orange when its this fresh I even had to eat some as Sushi!!!
We had even caught a Lamp Ray Eel it was sucking the life out of on of the King Salmon that we brought on the boat it was attached to the side (check out the pictures!!!)
we even took a walk in the bay of an Island where the water was crystal clear, calm and Yacht anchor and just take in the sun and relaxation!!!
Their house was on a hill where you could see far miles in there yard was Acres and Acres of corn. The Deer and Turkeys were just walking around in their yard like they owned the place!!! When they let Annie out she ran them off showing them who place it was.
We made a trip to one of the Rivers near by and saw someone catching Rain bow and Brown Trout there!!! (check out the picture!!!) My brother was right it was going to hit home so after pack up an ice chest of King Salmon and a brown trout it was time to get home.
