  1. I run 100lb same diameter as 30lb mono zero issues
  2. Dickey and I were out from 630 to 10 looking for Browns. Found them but as has been the case for me lately no big ones. Did get a decent king out of temp. Went with my wife from noon to 230 in 200 to 300 looking for Kings. Found a few but again nothing big. Beautiful day on the water. Fleas were in pretty thick but contrary to popular belief were more of a pain on 30lb big game than they were on my braided dipsys. Happy Fourth to all.
  3. Currently 36 inches on a calm day hugging the west side. The shallow spot on the east side is soft, watched folks churning it up both this morning and afternoon.
  4. Crazy Mike I’ve seen one this year.
  5. Mops if you ever want to jump on mine rather than drop yours let me know. I usually go Wednesday and Sunday mornings and usually am back at the dock by noon.
  6. Glad you got out. When going in or out of the channel cheat to the west side. Couple feet deeper than the east side.
  7. Only one small one on one Brown this year.
  8. Great opportunity for someone to learn a lot. Pay for a charter and increase the learning curve a ton. Or…. Be an observer in a tournament and get paid to watch and learn. No brainer.
  9. Lol today I wore socks and jeans. Never saw a fly. Maybe I’m on to something…..
  10. Fresh from Greg Blier, American Wildlife Taxidermy.
  11. Filleted the salmon from this morning for a couple people that wanted some. Was full of eggs.
  12. Great job! Had Tommy and his girlfriend out in the same water for a couple hours and got her her first king. Good news Brian, still haven’t caught a laker this year 😉.
  13. If it’s on the internets it has to be true. cool fish if it is!
  14. Yes he was. Special guy, they don’t make many guys like him anymore. They should. I remember him, Carl Ayer’s, Don Whitenight, Charlie Chic and more. Thankfully a few of those guys are still around. They made Sandy Creek what it is today.
  15. Ed Patt? Lived on 19 near what is now Tops? Guy was a legend.
  16. I was fortunate on the net job. My net is extended when I’m not out alone., but I keep it short if solo. I was careful to stay tight but gave the fish a few extra minutes before sliding him to the net. 100lb braid with an 80lb Flourocarbon to the Spin Dr on a 10 ft dypsy rod is a plus those last few feet. Net slid right under him and that was it.
  17. Proud to say still haven’t caught a laker all year!
