We weren’t sure what we find out there this morning but figured it would be cold and it was. Forty six degrees on the surface and 42 down 40 on our Fish Hawk. All rods were set before we had our first bite. It came on a high wire Ninja Diver out 115 with an 8″ White Crush Green Dot Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly. It wasn’t on long before it escaped. We boated our first fish on our port out down set at 45 with a pair of DW Green Hulks.
The water warmed the further north we trolled and our action picked up. Port high Ninja Diver out 200 with an 8″ White Paddle/White Glow Fly went 4 times. Starboard high Ninja Diver with the 8″ White Crush Green Dot Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly went 3 more times.
Port low wire out 100 went once with an 8″ Blue Bubble Spin Doctor/Blue Bubble Fly and once with a 10″Chrome Two Face Spin Doctor/A-Bomb DW Meat Rig. We missed a fish on the port out down set at 60 with a SS Spotted Magic Man and a SS Rodman free sliding above it. A 250 copper with an 8″ White Charlie Special DW Flip Fin Paddle/Purple Mirage Action Fly went twice. A 10 color core with an SS Metallic Frog went twice. A 225 copper with a Chrome Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly went twice. We took a big King on a 275 copper with an 8″ Blue Dragon Slayer Flip Fin Paddle/Glow Blue Bubble Action Fly. Our last fish came on an old school DW White Crush Silver Back Paddle/Green Crinkle Fly down 150 on our starboard out down.
The trip stated slow but lots of action the last half of our trip.
