Fairhaven 8/13

[paige386]

Went out of Anchor Resort and Marina this morning while the waves were managable. We headed out to around 200 and trolled back downhill, no takers we swung around and trolled out to around 300 and hit 1 King 13.5 on the 450 Copper with a magnum moonshine rv dancing anchovie. Had a few other releases then we swung back around and picked up a skippy. Off the water around 11:00.

Had another good day out of Anchor Marina in Fairhaven. We started in 250 and headed out to 700. Got a limit of Steelhead and Kings. The Moonshine Dancing Anchovie on the 300 and 450 Coppers. Had our lines down in the 45 degree around 110 down. Missed/lost at least another 10 fish. My buddy  Bill fought a beast for 10 - 15 mins around 650' deep when it cam unbuttoned.

Had another nice day out of Fairhaven got out late and started in 550 got 1 king 18lbs around 600 down 120 on the rigger SWR using a moonshine blue jackal, a little while later the same rigger fired and we got the second king 13 1/5. We had a hit on a twinky rig on the dipsey out 320 nobody home, we turned west and trolled down hill at 650 and added 2 smaller kings on the 300 copper with the dancing anchovy. Turned back around retracing and had 2 more come unbuttoned before we pulled the lines and headed in.

Nice Job, save a few for me on the weekend.

Got a late start this morning, waited till the rain passed by wave action wasn't too bad but the wind had changed direction, took a little while but we finally tracked them down, 550 was our best depth withe the same mix of lures.

Last Thursday was the last day we were able to get out, we found them around 650, riggers were down 120 using the same lure spread. Caught fish everyday we went out! 

 

See everyone in the spring, be safe out there!

 

Tight lines.
