8-2-17 Fishing Report

We fished north today setting up in 120 feet of water. We hit fish right away. An out down with a pair of Super Slim Super Breads set at 55 feet took off in the dark. It was the wildest fish I’ve seen in quite some time. It ran under our starboard divers then charged the boat, got under the swim platform, ran under the port divers, back under the swim platform and finally broke off on the starboard high wire diver. It was on the stack 10 feet above the main bait. While we were getting the out down back in action a big King hit a 11″ White Crush Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly 70 ft. down on the chute rigger. The Super Breads went 4 more times and we landed them all. Two took the stack and 2 hit the main bait including the 24.5 lb. King pictured left. A 10″ Blue Bubble Slick Spin Doctor/Blue Ice Big Water Tackle Meat Rig went twice on a high wire diver out 165 . A 10″ Black Slick Spin Doctor/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly took a big King on a low wire diver out 100.  An SS Green Skinny Jeans on a 200 copper and a regular DW Green Skinny Jeans on a 175 copper both took Kings. We missed a good one on a 250 copper with a 10″ Yellow Sparkler Spin Doctor/Cold Steel Meat Rig. We put an 8″ Chrome Spin Doctor/Chrome Blue WhirlyGig with glow wings on the bottom and took a trout. The last bite we had came on the stack SS Super Bread set at 55 feet above an 8″ White Slick Spin Doctor/Purple Mirage Action Fly. We missed that one. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s Tackle copper on our copper rods and Morgan’s wire on our wire rods.
