Sandy 4th of July

[ShawnJ]

Went out with a couple of buddies from work this morning. Started fishing around 5:15am and back to the launch by 10:30am. Fished mainly 80-140 fow. Still mainly a spoon bite but we took a couple shots on a meat rig as well. All kings except one decent steelhead. Caught 3 mature kings between 17-20lbs. The rest were 8-15 lb range. Riggers were 50-75 down. Divers on 2 were 150-195 range. We fished north/north west of the creek. Ended up 10 for 16. Fleas weren't really a problem but without a breeze the nats were pretty thick today. Happy 4th of July to everyone.

Congrats 

we were out a little deeper in 140-160 fow fished 6-9am went 10 of 15. Mainly spoons last fish on meat at 9. Fish up to 16lbs. 300 steel with the spoon below was hot along with a black silver green 42 in the riggers down 80-50 

Couldn’t break 20 but who cares!!!!  6 of 10 fish over 10lbs today!  This is the best I have had in 40 plus years on the lake! yes I caught two 30lbers in the 80-90s as a kid but I will take this fishery now any day!
 

 I actually got to reel one in today but my daughter caught the biggest 2!

 

happy 4th of July!

Was with Legacy out of Bald Eagle. Highlight of the day was definitely sunrise but 5 kings on at the same time with a 3 man crew was a close second. 100 to 120 feet of water was a slam fest. 

[FISHIN AGAIN?]

Fishing has been awesome. We have been out 5 of 6 days. Some days shallow today 100-150. Got the biggest 3 of the year on paddles. May be out again tomorrow.
