SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

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

Fishing has greatly improved over the last week. Larger kings along with nice steelhead are showing up on the east end.

Got a later start today. Started in 150 fow and trolled north. Was setting up rods and had a knockoff on our 100ft rigger. Set that back up and then the 240 starboard wire dipsey (Green SD and Green Atommik fly) starts singing. My fishing buddy Zach quickly hopped on the rod and we landed a nice king about 15 lbs.

Trolled for a little bit and worked towards my waypoints from yesterday's atommik challenge trip. Around 8:30 the portside 370 wire dipsey green/ green (takes a dive and sings our favorite tune). A few minutes later Zach lands another 15 lber.

We reload all the rods and just about to put the slider on our rigger, then the starboard dipsey (out 370 green/ green again) gets kissed and gets pulled out to 600 on the line counter. After clearing all the rods and chasin him down. Zach finally lands his biggest fish ever. 24 lbs.

Few more hit and runs after on our 130 ft rigger, but all came unbuttoned.

Looks like the waters on the east end are starting to set up nicely for hopefully a nice summer fishery. About time and hope it stays. fishawk probe - read 52 degrees at 90 foot down and 44 degrees at 120 down. over 220 - 300 fow.

Weather depending - will get out a bunch on my vacation 4th of July week. will report results.

Good luck, and tight lines.

Congrats to Zach on his BIG KING.

Looks like the practice on the silvers at Cross Lake may be paying off or maybe cause he's about a foot taller than last year.

Dave and I had a good time fishing the Oswego Challenge with ya.

Zach's fish would have helped the total for us yesterday.

Thanks again for the ice cream.

Nice report and pictures, RJ. It's nice to see that you spend time with

a younger fisherman and teach him the ropes. He is very lucky

to have you as a teacher . Good luck. We will catch up with you

when we get back from Ocean City, Md .
