Peterson Bay, Homer - Salmon Derby

We headed down to Homer again the weekend of Aug 18th - for the annual Peterson Bay Salmon Derby (yes, any type of salmon counts) It was slow going this year, only 2 salmon were caught! We at least we were on the winning boat...

Dellany holds up her winning fish - an 18.6lb King Salmon.

We headed out Sunday at 7am for high tide, and it was gorgeous! Cameras just can't pick up the subtlety of the colors we saw - it was breathtaking.

Chris, driving the boat - we all got a chance to drive while we were trolling - it was fun, and nobody crashed...
We always see a few otters when we're out - this guy was pretty cool, he was just hanging out near the beach while we floated by. So cute!
