Salmon surprise

Took Friday off work to target snapper then head into the deep to bottom bounce. The snapper illuded us, but thanks to the birds curiosity put us on a large shoal of salmon. We had great fun on light gear, releasing all fish successfully. The day ended up with a good feed of squid as a consolation prise. 

How did everyone else go?

 Why would you release a salmon? Are they out of season or something?

 Absolutely beautiful when done with maple sugar and salt. To me better than Spanish Mackeral.
