Fishing Report

We fished up north this weekend. We set up both days just off the bank in 120 feet of water (fow). We had a better morning bite this morning than yesterday. We had a 11″ Black Slick Paddle/Blue Fairways Strong Fly down 76 feet take our first and third King today. A 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Froggie Big Water Meat Rig out 150 on a high wire diver went twice. It was very foggy today so we could only get out one board on each side. A 10 ” Yellow Sparkle Spin Doctor/UV On Ice Big Water Rig on a 250 copper was our best copper or core today and was good yesterday too. We ran out of fish in the 04’s both days so we headed out to deeper water and put out a few more rods. Yesterday 10 color cores were hot . Today we never hit a fish on one. We had to rely on our radar today to keep us out of trouble with other boats. We still had three close calls and got our coppers tangled pretty bad on one of them. Saturday we hit a couple fish near the end of our trip, but today we didn’t have a bite after 10:00 . Our best rigs for the weekend were a 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Froggie Meat Rig out 150 on a high wire diver, a 10″ Yellow Sparkle/UV On Ice Big Water Rig on a 250 copper, and a 10″ Green Sparkle Spin Doctor/Green Gasoline Dreamweaver Meat Rig on a 200 copper. We are using Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs.

Tough fishing for us Thursday morning. The north blow Wednesday really mixed things up. We were going to run out deep to the break we fished Monday afternoon, but we ran across a break straight out in the 35’s that looked too good to pass up. We hit a fish  right away but didn’t get him. We worked that break over pretty hard and had just enough action to hold us there. Only rod that went twice was a Super Slim Steelie Stomper on a 1 color core.  On our afternoon trip we headed north and fished between 150 & 300 feet of water (fow) off the Point. We had decent action and took 3  mature Kings , a Steelhead, and 2 Lakers.  No rod went more than once. The surface temp was 62 degrees and it was 39 to 41 degrees down 50 feet. Took the Kings on a 7.5 color core with a #3 Chrome Redhead J-Plug. a 200 copper with a 10″ Green Sparkle Spin Doctor/Green Gasoline Dreamweaver Meat Rig , and a 10 ” Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Green Mile Big Water Meat Rig out 100 on a low wire diver. This morning we headed back north setting up in 120 fow south of the Point. The picture looked good on our graph, but the only action we had was a undersize Laker on a high wire diver . We headed for deeper water north of the Point and finally hit a fish in 350 fow on a 10″ Green Sparkle Spin Doctor/Green Gasoline DW Meat Rig on a 250 copper. We took another mature King on a 10″ Mountain Dew Spin Doctor/Cold Steel Big Water Meat Rig out 120 on a low wire diver. We talked to several  boats that were hitting fish on blue colored baits. We put a 10″ Blue Mamba Spin Doctor/Cold Steel Big Water Rig out 150 on a high wire and it went twice. We had a 8″ Blue Killer Spin Doctor/Blue Moo Big Water Rig on a 200 copper that also went twice. Our biggest King came on a 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Froggie Big Water Rig on a 350 copper. We had Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs.
