Ibay 7/6

[matt05star]

Got a little later start than yesterday, but got fishing about 7 with my brother (yukiginger).

We started in about 90 fow pretty much straight out of the bay.  Had a small steelie on an orange and black spoon pretty quickly, but got off about 30 feet back. That fish was only about 20 ft. down.

 

Continued trolling north, and at 200 ft, despite a pretty blank screen, had a nice rip on the dipsy out 135' with a white spin doctor with black and green dots and green and white fly.  After a nice battle, landed a 22 lb. king.   We worked that same area a litte while, but without many fish on the screen, decided to continue north to join a few boats that were out deeper. 

 

Unfortunately, we still didn't have much action or see any activity in 325-400, so pulled lines and went back into 200.  The screen had improved, and we took a few more shots on the same dipsy rig, landing a baby king and a small brown.  Had one more spoon bite, but that fish got off just after a few seconds.

 

Nice to put a good fish on the deck, and spend the holiday weekend fishing with my brother on LO.  Other than a storm that was a little too close for comfort yesterday afternoon, the winds and waves were quite favorable.

 

Thanks to all who share information on this site.
