We had all our rods set before our first bite. It came on our starboard out down set at 70 with a pair of SS Sodas. We doubled up when our high Ninja Diver out 170 took off. The fish on the Sodas got into the high wire and sawed off. We lost the one on the high wire too. Not a great way to start out the morning. But our action did pick up.
Starboard 7.5 color core went 2 times with a Mini Natural Glow DW Plug. Starboard 10 color went once with a Mini Pink Dot DW Plug. Starboard 225 copper went once with a Mini Soda DW Plug.
Starboard 275 copper went twice with an 8″ Custom Chrome Paddle/Glow Mirage Fly. Port out down set at 60 went once with a Mini Soda DW Plug and once down 65 with an 8″ White Charlie Special Flip Fin Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly. Starboard out down set at 70 went twice with an 8″ Black Slick Flip Fin Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly. Chute rigger went twice with an 11″ Black Slick DW Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly. First time down 110, second down 150. Port high Ninja Diver went once out 170 with an 8″ Black UV Spin Doctor/Black Gasoline DW Meat Rig. Port low wire diver out 140 went twice. Once with a 10″ Dreamcatcher Spin Doctor/Ghost DW Meat Rig, and once with an 8″ Black Slick Spin Doctor/Black Widow DW Meat Rig. Starboard high Ninja Diver went twice out 170 with an 8″Black Slick Spin Doctor/Isotope DW Meat Rig. Starboard low wire with the same rig went twice at 150 and once back 170.
