My brother & I were sailing through the narrows at Fiordland Marine Park in BCwhen we saw lots of fish jumping. Don said do you think I can troll going through here and I replied give ita try. We found we were going too fast as the flasher was flying over the water. Don decided to remove the flasher and give it another try.This time within seconds he had a big Coho and the wind picked up at the same time.Talk about excitment when I grabbed the fish net to land him. That fishnet got hooked on every possibe thing in the cockpit. It was more of a fight with that fishnet then Don was having with his Coho.With no one at the helm the sailboat leaned way other throwing both of us down in the cockpit with Don still holding on to his rod with his fish and then a miracle happened the boat went into a Heave too and quickly came to a halt letting us land that beautiful Coho.I have practiced Heave too many times and never got it work right yet.Fred Scott
