Wells Dam Salmon Fishing with guide Shane Magnuson

[@girlfinfishing]

Those are some good looking salmon. Curry salmon, mmm 😋 Love the videos!

Been swamped so we will be making that curry salmon soon!

Cool video and nice job, but just honestly wondering if they are actually good eating that far up river in that kind of warm water

[@boattothebelly]

These summer run fish are great table fare. The sockeyes are the best eating salmon and the chinook are very good as well. The flesh isn’t as firm due to some fat loss due to the long travel but they are still great to eat fresh. We try not to freeze the chinook. Sockeyes hold up well when frozen.

Yeah we heard, and saw the pic, of a 30lb chinook the day before we went. It was a hatchery fish too. That’s a beauty!

What model of fishing rods were those?

I saw him on the river last weekend and forgot to ask. I fish with him in October so I’ll let you know
