Didn’t mess with any of my trailcams this weekend because checking them when it’s been raining often leaves too much humidity inside them.













Watched an eagle dive into the water and grab a pink salmon that was too big for it to carry while flying, so it swam the fish to shore. I paddled to the other side of the bird to get better lighting, and was able to video the eagle landing with its catch. Bald eagles float and are good swimmers; this one had to swim about 50 yards to get its fish to shore, only to have it stolen by a mob of other eagles.

Watching the eagle catch a pink salmon on the surface helped me to catch one. Since I wasn’t having any luck fishing deep for a king, I brought my lure up near the surface and caught dinner almost immediately.
Good stuff! Thanks for posting 🙂

I always carry a zip lock bag full of paper towels to dry my hans and the camera before opening but when it’s raining hard it’s best to leave them alone, or bring an umbrella. . .
