SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

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

Left at 7:00. Set up at 7:45. Had three rods in the water and the ass port side rigger gets slammed. Fought it for a while till he breached and gave up. In the middle of that the ass starboard rigger gets slammed too. First one was 24. Second was 19. The 19# fish thought he was bigger. He cleared the water. Landed them both. Hooked both on a north troll. Went to the north dunes then turned around. On a west troll, we doubled browns on the dipsies. One was 3 and the other one we lost at the boat. We threw the 3 pounder back to be caught again. Didn't do anything till 11:30 headed south when the starboard dipsy gets smoked. Started at 330 and out to 800 he went. Thought it was a derby fish so cleaned up the other rods. At 200 out he jumped and went psycho for about a minute. After about 25 minutes, we see the fish. Something wasn't right. The fish came in by his ass. He broke the leader but we landed him still. The leader tangled around his tail. But we were even more shocked at what it was. Derby king? Nope. 18# coho! Crazy fight. Damn things jump like a prick. We out together a good box. Will be up next week, too. Ok bite today but slowed down in the afternoon. Good luck to all in the derby this week and weekend. See you next week.
