Olcott 8/27

[Tim Bromund]

Dad and I hit Olcott yesterday morning. Took advantage of the new 3 rod rule to run our regular six rod spread.

Cold water inside, we had 48-50 deg down 45 feet.

Kind of slow for us, we went 2/4 with one smallish mature hen king (16 or 17 lbs) and a nice 7 lb brown landed. Our best water was 50-70 fow between the microwave and the plant.

had 1 hit and run on the 150 diver green/glow opti inticer/green and silver fly (don't remember the pattern). The king came on the 45' rigger on a carmel dolphin SD/Crazy B!tch Atommic fly. Initially thought it was going to be a much bigger fish as it went on a big 150 yd + screaming first run, but that was all it had in it, after that it was done and just came right in.

The Brown hit a mongoose pattern fishlander spoon tight to bottom in 70 fow (70 foc out in 70 fow)

Radio chatter seemed to indicate that most had a slow day.

I was of olcott out last night went 1 for 4. but that 1 we got to the boat was a 27 lb 6oz king. It was real slow for us and most people we talked to or saw at the fish cleaning station only had a few fish.
