SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

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

Fished Today with my son and my father in law.

We only fished with 5 rods. two dipseys, two riggers, and copper down the middle (more of a mess than it's worth).

We started out in about 100 FOW and trolled straight north.

Got the third rod down and the first one took off, my sons starts us out with a 22.12 king on a spook spoon ( a great big pirate 66).

long in short we went 12 for 18 today, all kings.

My 15 yr old is quicker than billy the kid when a rod goes off. I can't beat him to a rod. he probably reeled in 8 today.

The first fish was the biggest, we kept 6 (mostly the ones we couldn't get to swim away).

Dropped the only two fish that hit the copper, about halfway during the retrieve. I don't think it hooks them very well.

Other stuff that worked... Everything except nbk really. Thats the only thing that didn't get touched.

spinnys and flies worked, cut bait worked, spooks and glow frogs worked.

We fished between 50-90 feet down over 100-210 fow.

Hopefully back out tomorrow or Sunday.
