The following account would sum up just how well the fish like the Nuke's.
Jim Satterfield was nervous as I told him that the chances for chinooks were slim at best. But none-the-less Saturday August 21 found Jim his wife and their friends at Campbell River's famous Cape Mudge Lighthouse. I had just put out the first rod at 180 feet, with a blue NUKE on a 6 foot leader. When I turned to set the second rod the first one dipped hard and then the reel started to scream. The fish fought hard and deep before I was able to slip the net under it. A teenager and not a bad way to start. At that moment a guide friend of mine appeared and I gave him the green glow NUKE.
It wasn't five minutes befor
e he had a fish on and
lost it at the boat. By that time I had entered the top
of the "Ozone". The rods were not out five
minutes before we had another fish on. In fact, on that
drift we caught three fish and each was bigger than the
other one's. Before we left the light we had bagged five
chinooks. This was surely a night to remember, but there
would be one more, a 28 lb beauty before the night was
done.
