New member and new to fishing on my own

[Bauer]

Hello fellow fisherman my name is Mike. I just bought a 1998 18ft bayliner trophy. I have a a bunch of experience running riggers and some wire dipsy, but i was on someone elses boat and alwasy did what they wanted. I did farely well for browns on my own this spring. But i will need more insight and tips to help me catch salmon. Thank you in advance!

Thank you. How has the fishing been for you so far this season?

Overall it’s been amazing. Plenty of kings showed up early and brown trout have been strong and consistent. Only issue has been during times of East wind. Weather this week will be favorable and it’s going to be a great year.

Thats good, yea the east winds slowed everything down out of bear creek so were gonna try a new spot and head west to oak orchard this morning

Welcome! Always nice to see another Trophy on the water. Where do you usually fish on the big lake?
