SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

====================

Fleas realy really suck.

They where wadded up in the probe antenna today.

Went 7 for 9 this morning.

Caught 4 kings, biggest 24 lbs, father in law caught that one, he's sitting in 13th (for now).

One laker and two steelhead.

The steelies both hit a lemon ice stinger, and it also got knocked off once.

The laker and two salmon came off the new salted cut bait with a froggy green head. The cut bait doesnt fit in the heads very well though. and the fleas really really suck. We had a few fish on the wire and had to keep whipping and shaking to get the fleas off so we could get it in.

The other two salmon came off wire/spinny/fly.

Best depth we could find was 140-160, east troll was good for us today, and with the waves acting up a little we went east for a majority of the trip.

We did not mark hardly anything after about 100fow but we were hitting some fish. Only 2 of us so only 4 poles limits what you can throw at them. I would have liked to try a few other presentations.

Hopefully get another try tomorrow morning.

Nice fish! Congrats! I'll second the "fleas suck" part though - never seen them this bad. Were you East or West of port?

That's a pig, nice job. We'll be out at the Oak in early August for a few days - could you pull as many of those fleas as you can? They really, really, really suck!
