Fishing Report

We fished south today setting up in 140 feet of water. It was just breaking daylight when the reel on a 300 copper with an 8″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Liquid Sunshine Action Fly started screaming out line. I was glad we had had a good spool knot. The fish took out all the line on a 800 Tekota and when it got to the end we locked the drag down and it broke off at the bait. Before we could get all the copper back in we took a Coho on a regular Blue Skinny Jeans 85 down on an out down. We took a Coho and lost one on the same spoon later in the morning. The big King pictured above came on a regular size Raspberry Carbon spoon on a 300 copper. A 10″ White Slick Spin Doctor/Pickled Sunshine Dreamweaver Meat Rig out 270 on a high wire diver took a King and we took a Coho on a low wire diver out 150 with an 8″ Chrome Killer Spin Doctor/Green Mile Dreamweaver Meat Rig. We took a Trout and lost another one right at the back of the boat on a 10″ Chrome Spin Doctor/Chrome Blue WhirlyGig with glow wings fished on the bottom in 150 feet of water. Our last fish came when we were pulling line on a 225 copper with a regular size Green Skinny Jeans. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs, Morgan’s copper on all our copper rods & Morgan’s wire on all our wire rods.

Set up in front of the Project today in 120 feet of water. The picture on our graph looked good in the dark but thinned out when it started getting light. We took our first fish on a regular DW Raspberry Carbon spoon on a 300 copper. A high wire diver out 185 with a 10″ White Slick Spin Doctor/Pickled Sunshine Dreamweaver Meat Rig was next but that one got off and so did the next one on a 250 copper with a UV Hulk spoon. We missed one on an  8″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Liquid Sunshine Action Fly out 125 on a low wire diver and took one on the same rig on a 300 copper. We took a King on the White Slick/Pickle Rig on the high wire out 235. We had Yeck Wart Frogs stacked on our out down and chute rigger. We took a Coho and a Steelhead on those. It got pretty rough out there but our crew held up well. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s Tackle copper on all our copper rods & Morgan’s wire on our wire rods.
