Out of Hughes 9-19-15

[Sk8man]

Admiral Byrd and I gave it one last try after the discouraging results I had on Wednesday trolling for nearly 10 hrs without a hit. We left the ramp in the dark and got an early start on things at a little after 6 Am. Basically we worked the area both west and east of Hughes in 50-150 ft of water with 6 lines out the entire time despite the narly wind and intermittent light rain until 2:15 PM and caught a solitary brown 22 inches long on a downrigger set at 95 over 104 ft of water with a slider and that is what he hit and it was probably about 70 or so. No other hits and although we marked fish some were up quite high and it is hard to tell what any of them were or if they were even salmon or trout etc.....guess it is time we get started perch fishing on the Fingers and hope for better fishing in the Spring for the salmon Got a good shot when we were going out this AM though.
