It was bumpy as all get out but it was worth it . I will drop off a few more as you got bit off last week and a few replacement inserts . As I recall they took the glo model . I had a newbie and we made him reel in all the fish , which explains some of our landing percentage . But it's all good .

Well I did not get into the Sandy creek shootout figuring no way could I compete with My boat and primitive equipment . But We fished that morning and did quite well as we found a good pod of kings that were biting . We easily had a 75 # box . I don't know where we would have landed . And we ran two rods most of the morning and were having breakfast with my wife by 930 .

After a bust yesterday with a Cancel and A guy who could only fish 2 hrs we head back out today with a double team with Coyote K . Started in 80 with all kinds of bait but no hits . Decided to head out deep and glad we did . 300 ish was the best for us . 65 to 95 down . And again my braid dipsey out fished my wire . I keep hearing how much better wire is . Well , I ain't seeing it . Went 3 for 8 . All good fish 2 hits on spoons . The rest were white flashers and my Gary D rig I think I have finally perfected .Got bit off twice . That I need to fix . One time this summer I did not catch a fish on it . I don't think I have the next great Salmon bait. After 3 summers of testing I now know it .

DETAILS ?

If I were you I would run one flasher each on each rigger fishing the marks As deep as try the fish are . 25 to 35 lead 20 apart vertically . And a mag spoon On each dipsey set on 1.5 back a long way or fish the marks And I love my white flashers . White rocks . And turn a lot , s curves so you lures are going the right speed at least some of the time .

When we get a strong east wind for a day or two the wind pushes the surface water west while the current flows east and pulls the cold water from down deep to the surface . It can be as cold as 42 Dec this time of year surface temp . This is my understanding of how this happens Fishing is bad inshore and to find stable water you will have to go 3 to 15 miles offshore . The fishing can be quite good out there . I head north and drop lines when surface temp reaches around 65 And head north .

Is anyone sitting on it ?

It's coming Stay tuned

I'm with Rolmops There was a very distinct temp break yesterday . Only had to move it a few feet to drop 10 deg .

Took two of my friends out this morning Not much of a picture and temp was,shallow at 55 ft . Worked out way our to 225 Best was 180 We were 3 for 5 . Biggest was 21# and lost another good one . Watermelon Mag was best Tough bite today for us .

And what difference does it make if your rigger counter reads 80 and the real depth is 72 . If you get hit when you rigger says 80 then you can adjust everything to that . The depth is relative More info than you need IMO . But somebody of you guys have to have the latest and greatest I guess

Great job You were into 3 kings I would not call that a slow day . Especially fishing mid day .

First light to rough seas Went out to 90 Temp came way up last night 47 at 50 ft So we worked our way west and out . Not a good screen at all but temp went deeper as we went out Anyway after taking a few over the the bow while trolling into it and dropping 2 fish I turn it to go with it back to the creek and call it a Derby . Rod goes off 55 down , nice mature about 18 20 min later Double , down 62 and dipsy at 170 dropped the dipsy and landed rigger fish looked like twin to the first one . We were 2 for maybe 7 releases . Ran 4 flashers today . Snotty out there . So much for 1 ft waves forecasted .
