We got back yesterday and the trip was great. The weather was good with flat to 3' seas so getting out fishing everyday was no problem. Fishing was slow for Kodiak and we were only able to net 500 pounds of filets (yes, that is slow for a week in Kodiak, we're so spoiled).
One of the guys this year has been  posting a blog about the trip that's worth taking a peek at.
 
Here's a few images from this year:

Ling Cod make for great table fare. Grey Cod is good for the garden

Ling cod are way oily but I'll take all the red snapper (yellow eyes) you want to give me. They are by far my favorite eating fish. I prefer them even to halibut. However I eat all the halibut I can.
