Fishing Report

We decided to fish north today figuring warming water temps south might move more fish north towards the Point. We set up in 120 feet of water and trolled into the waves. All our lines were set when an out down with a pair of Super Slim Super Breads 55 down took off. While we were fighting that fish 4 more rods went. We got the first fish but didn’t get any of the other 4.Just as we passed the Point we were met by a large group of boats trolling south. We managed to weave our way through them and take a couple more Kings. We trolled a few miles north of the Stick and turned south with the waves. We took a big King on the turn on a high wire diver out 130 on a 10″ Chrome Killer Spin Doctor/Green Gasoline Dreamweaver Meat Rig. We took 1 fish on the south troll. It came on the out down with the Super Breads set at 65 feet. We only had 1 plug bite. It came on a Natural Glow Captains Choice Cut Plug on a 250 copper. One of our biggest Kings came on a 10″ Light Blue Spin Doctor/Blue UV Big Water Meat Rig out 120 on a high wire diver. The best troll for us and a couple other boats I talked with was a north troll. The waves kept building all morning and it was tough for us to maintain a good trolling speed heading north. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s Tackle copper on all our copper rods and Morgan’s wire on all our wire rods.  

We fished south today setting up in 100 feet of water . We were a little worried about how the fishing was going to be after two days of high winds and a big full moon in the sky. The screen on our graph didn’t show any bait and only a fish or two so we put a little west on our troll. We started hitting fish in 110 fow. A pair of Super Slim Super Breads on one of our out downs  took the first bite. We missed it but landed a Coho on a 175 copper with a Super Slim Green Skinny Jeans. We stayed on a 210 troll and had really good action. We landed less than half our hits. Our crew was good on the rods but the fish better at getting off the hook. It was a lot of fun getting all those bites. The Super Breads on an out down were our hottest baits. The main bait was 55 down and the stack was 10 feet above it. We had a pair of regular size DW Green Skinny Jeans on our other out down and they were a close second. Our only plug was a Captain’s Choice Natural Glow Cut Plug on a 250 copper. It went 3 times with big fish but we only got 1 of them. Our high wires were out 120 & 110 with a 10″ Blue Bubble Spin Doctor/Cold Steel Big Water Meat Rig on one and a 10″ White Slick Spin Doctor/Pickled Sunshine Dreamweaver Meat Rig on the other they both went a couple times. Our low wires were out 85 & 110 with a 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend/Green Mile Big Water Rig and a 10″ White Crush Dark Green Scale Spin Doctor/Pickled Sunshine DW Meat Rig. They both took fish. All our rods went at least once. The ones I’ve named here were our best ones. We pulled lines at 10:00 a.m. with a 3 man limit. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s Tackle Copper on all our copper rods and Morgan’s wire on our wire rods.
