SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

Made a scouting run to Golden hills state launch Friday night. I was suppose to pick up a trailer from a relative in Albion but that fell through and every time I looked in the rear view mirror the bow of a 16 smoker was following me so well

Any way a newbie troll so nothing scientific or professional going on here but I did manage a vey chunky brown so this night was not lost.

I launched around 530pm and ran out to 50fow and set up with a wire dipsey diver and my go to leadcore rig.After an hour or so I set the down rigger up and wish I started with it. Trolled from 50 to 120 straight off the tower for 2 hours and boated a very fat brown at 8lbs off 8 colors of leadcore and a large smally. Had 3 releases off the down rigger set at 60-70 feet.

I have to say it is awesome to troll with land on 1 side and open water to the horizon on the other!!

I think I found some new waters to explore when the winds are light.

I already know the fish are much much bigger

Very quiet night up there, 3 other boats out deeper.

Is that a power plant just north of the launch in the Olcott area?

Thanks to all you guys up on The Big o that inspired me

Here is a lousy camera pick of the brown as the sun was setting... batteries died on the digital

[W.W.IV.]

WTG nice brown, I can't help you find fish there I'm to far east of there. Most of my fish have come off the rigger at 60-70 ft. also but the wire is doing its share. Oh theres a power plant out there at Olcott. Good luck.
