Thursday we get on the water around 1. We quickly hit a coho in front of port and then nothing for a couple hours so we headed out deep and had nothing to show for it. By the time we got back into the 120’ mark we were 2 miles west of johnson’s creek and the screen lit up. We quickly boated 4 fish at or over 20lbs in a half hour and figured we had our spot for the weekend.

Friday we met up with greg (pleasure unit). We headed west of port and wanted to give one quick trip through our numbers to make sure the fish were there. Well we didn’t even get a hit. So we continued to troll down to the silos. The screen looked good but we couldn’t buy a hit. At this time we made the decision to run back to our numbers and hit it up one more time to see if we could get anything going, then run east to sandy and see if we could get into some fish that legacy did the previous week. Well we did one mid teen at our numbers and then ran east to sandy where we hit a small 8lb king. Still not satisfied we headed back to johnson creek to see if we could get any browns. Where we ended up with a small steelie, then had to head in for the captains meeting.

Saturday- With a less then stellar prefish day on Friday the team wanted to head west to olcott where a few buddies got into some decent numbers Friday. However I was able to complain enough until the team gave in to head back to our spot from Thursday, which ended up being a good move as we hit fish all day, just inside our spot on thursday from 75 to 90 feet. Unfortunately, we went 7 for 19 which would come back to haunt us but still had a great day. As the 5 color core consistently fired until they both finally broke. After day 1 we were third.

Sunday- was a different story we couldn’t buy a fish at our spot so we headed east to sandy were we hooked up with 5 lakers. After the first one we decided to bump up the speed to see if we could get kings to hit and we just continued to hit bigger lakers. So we headed into weigh-in with 1 fish and dropped to 6th.

All in all a decent weekend in tough conditions. Greg it was nice meeting you and we greatly appreciate you observing for us. See ya’ll in Oswego.
