Oak orchard 8/17

Wasn't sure where to start today after the ne blow, so we set up in 100 on a ne troll. We started with 4 smaller kings, all on a 50 rigger with a mag carbon 14. Water temp was very high, in the 40s down 50. Looking for bigger fish, we pointed northeast.

 

Once we passed 300 fow, we got back into fish- but all small kings again. We would boat 8 more 1-2 year old kings, the biggest about 9 lbs. spoons on riggers was best, 60-80 down. We did get 2 hits on meat on a 300 copper, and one on a dipsey with a spoon. Temp was 50 down 70 or so. Our best water was 400-500 15-16 west. We kept 6 and released 6, including the smallest salmon I have ever seen (caught on a mag spoon no less!!)

 

Where the heck are the majors?? I covered 100-500 fow today, and saw none....

Got some great grilling material there and you're arms aren't killing you from an epic battle with a major on the copper that all you can do with is smoke or bake- you're all set for a good night, enjoy!!

How did you do today? Just saw you come up the river, too rough for a solo run today.
