summary: There were a lot of marks and bait in that 100-120 fow of water and we did take a couple of lakers, but listening to the advice of those wiser (tx Chris and Nick) I headed for deeper water for silvers. as I got out over 200fow, the down temp on my probe at 80' dropped to 40-41 degrees. Took it to 70 and it was 44, came up to 60 and it was 45-46 degrees, came up further to 50 and 48 degree water. Over that 200-300 fow, best screen was top 70 foot of water, although there were a couple deep marks.
Currents were pretty intense, and found my boat heading N or NW would be just into gear and running high 2.8-3.0 sog and there was nothing I could do. We did pick up the one steelie and the big king, heading in that direction....but the last 3 fish came on the SE troll, where I had to push RPM's to 850 and was doing 1.8-2.0 SOG, but down speed was 2.4-2.6, so I fished my probe and that worked.
It was a spoon bite and between the rigger (NBK), the 4 color (fire frog) and the 10 color (steelie stomper) those took 5 of the fish, but all silver. Only the lakers took the flies on the divers and my down rigger with the fly did not take a hit!
Will probably set up a more spoon focused program in the morning tomorrow, in 80fow and point it north. I don't want to run over the inside water that quick, just in case there are some nice browns or whatever. Will still run flies on my deep divers, but all my riggers and leadcore will be set with spoons to start.
okay. Still cant upload photo's from my iPhone, but whatever....reports will keep coming! Tight lines all!!!
