Fishing Report

Had a hardy crew this morning. The waves were pretty big when we started the trip and were building all morning. Our first 2 bites came in the dark. Both were on a 8″ White Crush Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly on an out down set at 70 ft. It went 2 more time later in the morning. Once again our hot rig was the 10″ Blue Bubble Spin Doctor/Blue Fairways Strong Fly. We had them on both high wire divers and one low wire diver. The high wires were out  190 and 200 ft. and the low was out 150. They all went several times. We had the same rig on a 300 copper except it was a glow blade and it took a big King. Only 1 plug bite and it was a Blue Splatter Back Dreamweaver Captains Choice Cut Plug on a 300 copper. Our only meat bite came on a 225 copper with a 10″ Chrome UV Crush Yellow Dot Spin Doctor/UV On Ice Big Water Meat Rig. Our biggest King came on a 350 copper with a 8″ Green Slick Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly. This is the first trip we have really had the small Paddles working for us. You can bet we will be fishing them more in the future. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s copper on all our copper rods.

The west wind made for a sloppy troll this morning up north. We took 4 fish on the early bite and hit a few more after the sun came up. We had 10″ Blue Bubble Spin Doctors & Blue Fairways Strong Flys on both divers on the port side of the boat and they both went several times . A big Green Slick Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Actiuon Fly went 4 times on the chute rigger set at 80 ft. We had 2 plug bites. One on a 250 copper with a Natural Glow Dreamweaver Cut Plug and the other on a Blue Splatter Back Captains Choice Cut Plug on a 300 copper. We had 3 meat bites.  Quite a few of our bites didn’t hook up, but our crew landed every fish that did hook up. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s copper on all our copper rods.
