Fishing Report Your Name / Boat Name: FISH FX ============== TRIP OVERVIEW ============== Date(s): 7/28/12 Time on Water:5 - 12:30 Weather/Temp: Cloudy Wind Speed/Direction:NE 15-20 Waves: 3-5 w/occasional 6+ Surface Temp: 74 Location: LAT/LONG (GPS Cords): =============== FISHING RESULTS =============== Total Hits: 15 Total Boated: 11 Species Breakdown: Kings, steelhead, laker Hot Lure: Green/white dot spinny w/ ATOMMIK green hammer Trolling Speed: 2.8-3.4 Down Speed: 2.0-2.8 Boat Depth: 100-250 Lure Depth: 60-110 ==================== SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS ==================== Another great time at the Sandy Creek Shootout and thanks again to organizers and sponsors. I was joined by friend Dave from work and John Kelley and we headed out of the creek at 5:00 to find that the weatherman had his head up his arse. We were surprised at the number of boats already out with lights flickering on and off with the waves. We stayed East of most of the pack and started setting up in 70fow heading North. We ran two wire dipsey's with spinny/fly combos consisting of a green dot SD /atommik green hammer out 225 and a carbon 14 SD/ Moonshine carbon 14 fly out 245 and 3 riggers with spoons - moonshine silver carbon at 75, DW green gator mag at 65 , and a Moonshine green shorts mag at 85. Spoons would be changed out many times and there was no MVP as they seemed to take only smaller fish for us. We did run green dot, black dot, and white nuclear SD w/matching Flies on the corner riggers for a period and they each took a fish or two. The green dot spinny/ green hammer fly combo on the 225 wire was by far our hottest set up and accounted for most of our fish including a 12+lb steely that was 12 in the LOC when weighed in and won biggest steelhead in the shootout netting us a nice prize from Dreamweaver A white SD/ ITO 6" white glow fly took the 2nd king of double on our wires. We had steady bites up until 9:00 working at stretch of 170-200fow and then we hit a lull after circling a king that was wrapped in the wire sending us off course. The next 2hrs would be slim pickins with 1 knock-off and one dink. The bite seemed to turn back on around 11 when we found a pod of steelies. We had a lot of laughs and fished well together for being the first time the 3 of us had fished together Looking forward to next year already. Congrats to all who placed as there were some very impressive boxes of kings, especially Jason, Trish, and Andy for the 3-peat Shawn

Nice report and pics Seemed like everytime we saw you Sat, you guys had a fish on. Learned of the "boga technique" from Capt. Jeremy too - works great and have to try the 15' rope - thanks for the tip. Shawn

Great report and pics You guys do look like ya had a good time! Shawn

Nice report John! It was great meeting and fishing with you and Andrew and you summed it up well as to how good we fished together . I still think you should start your own boat rescue/towing service. Check with the Coast Guard about that flashing yellow light for your boat. Yesterday was one of those "humbling" days on Lake O! After all the consistent, awesome fishing we've had, it kinda sucked having all those hit-n-misses and dropped fish yesterday . That's fishin though. Although we didn't get that derby fish we were lookin for, we still had fun and a lot of laughs Unfortunately, I broke the micro SD card in my phone yesterday , so don't have any pics to add - sorry. Shawn

Congrats Jerry!! Hope it holds for ya Shawn

That's what its all about - congrats!! Shawn [ Post made via BlackBerry ]
