SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

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

Went out after work for a few hours, fished until 8PM. Started out with purple NBK and silver/pink/blue NBK on one rigger, blue dolphin on dipsey 210' out on one side, green/blue/yellow fly on hammer flasher on other rigger and white/green dotted flasher on other downrigger and chartreuse flasher with green/yellow fly on the other dipsy out 150. 6-8# lakers taking all of the flies from 75' up to 50'. At one point, sequential fish left us with none of the 4 rods in the water - all on an eastward troll in 95' against the wind. Shifted everything over to green/chartreuse fly & flasher combos, and continued to get one fish after another. Left one dipsy with the yellow stinger NBK, out ~150', and that took the small coho and ~8# king. Waves got increasingly "active" as the evening wore on, so we were happy to be busy catching lakers! Sure beat the "good day at work"! All fish were safely released.
