Beautiful morning, perfect conditions. Hit the water at 4:40 AM, had two in the box by 6:00 AM, and then a slow but steady pick bite until around 10:00 AM. Final score was 6 Kings, 1 laker. The kings were all nice and silver. 3 were 2-3# "skippys", 2 in the 15-17# range, and my best fish of the season so far, an estimated 25#, and I tend to be conservative in estimating such things. I fish alone, so no derby card and no scale. (I'm buying a scale !) Best water for me was 140'-175' west of the shute, temp break was down around 100' . All fish came on riggers down 100'-125'. Green/Green. 2.3-2.6 mph on the GPS. A few more boats out there today.

Went out solo for the late afternoon/evening Friday. Marked bait and targets down 100'-140' over 165'-200' NW of port. Went 4/4, all kings - 1 skippy, other three 15#, 18# and 20#. Green/glow pro-troll and A-Tom-Mik crinkle/green fly down 105' and 115' on at 2.4 knots on the GPS. Smooth as glass (after the storms moved through) and very little traffic. This AM chased off by storms by 8:00. Did'nt even move a rod - either the fish moved off my waypoints, (or up or down), or they did'nt want to eat yesterday's goodies. Either way, did'nt have time to look for 'em. At least there are finally some kings around !

Question for folks with kicker experience. My boat is a Trophy 2359 with a swim platform, and I just bought a Yamaha T9.9 20" shaft kicker for it. I figured 20" would work fine, but I am now second guessing myself, wondering if the 25" shaft would be better. Anybody got any thoughts. The motor is still crated, and I can probably exchange it if I need the 25". Thanks, Sutton44
