SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

Fished with my buddy Anthony, landed a mixed bag - bite seemed the best when you found nice surface temp breaks and debris lines. Hottest set-up was free sliders on the riggers - 35' down and three color core. Hits came on NBK, Seasick Waddler, Ruby Red ,Golden orange icicle, and Steelie Dan. Wierdest thing today was an 8# laker on three color core over 350' of water.

Orange and red spoons and green spoons were the best. No luck with deeper stuff or wire or flasher/fly set-ups.

When we first started we were the only boat offshore, but then it looked like most boats slid out near us at the end of the morning. Saw one boat hook up with a throwback skipper.

Good luck to all - the lake is transitioning and temp should be stratified in no time.

There is always something new we get to see everyday! Laker on 3 color core. I would have bet the farm that it would never have happened!

My wife loved the coho and steelhead combo dinner meal. Now, she has started to beg me to run out more often and bring back home many more fish for dinner! No, that was just my wishful thinking!

About the debris field, earlier, I was joking about the vintage movie with the Gozilla monster whereas the floating debris contained dead bodies and underneath the debris, lies a sea monster. We have seen the dead bird and large dead carp and yes we have managed to catch the little monsters swimming under the pile.

Thanks for the great time on your boat!
