I bay 6/16&17

Went out with my brother and nephew on Father's Day and the following day.  Father's Day was a little bumpy, but we fished from 6:45 to 11, and ended 3 for 3 with a dink salmon, a laker, and a nice 22 lb mature.  We fished from 125-200 fow both days.  We marked occasional fish down 80-120.  

Today it was just my brother and me, and we fished the same general water. Again, we marked good fish, but getting them to bite was difficult.  Today we fished just 7:45 to 10:15.  Maybe we spent too much time pointing north, because,  when we got back in shallower, we found some excellent marks.  The 100 rigger went off as I was pulling the shallower rigger for the day, and we caught another nice king ( 19 lbs). We also caught a coho today.  Overall slow, but we landed the fish that did bite.

We ran two riggers with spoons ( free sliders also)  and two wire dipseys with flasher flies. No hits on the dipsies.

Fleas are pretty bad, and the flies were biting today.

I'm including a picture of the lure that took the two big kings. I don't know the name of it. It has a white back. We also took a small king and an average coho on a magnum uv wonderbread glow spoon down about 50.

 

The wave forecast was accurate today, as it calmed down from just a good chop mid morning. 

It's always a pleasure to fish with my brother.

 Nice to get out with the family. This hot, humid, and calm weather will probably bring the biting flies out in masses!!!
