Set up in the River around 6am and did the combat thing for like 3 hours. Only managed 1 rip on a white/dew spinny with a TG fly, out on the wire 40' back. Pulled the lines and headed out to the deep stuff. Stopped around 250-300ish and set up figuring we would work our way out to that 400-450' range. Didnt get my 5th rod in the water and FISH ON! For the next few hours we just smacked the 2yr old salmon and chrome. Biggest steelie was only 8-9lbs and the biggest king was 10-12 lbs. Not very big fish, but I had a guy from work on board and he thought the non stop action was unreal. He ended up letting me reel in the 10 color after he battled a fish on it once. We had somewhere near 15 bites and most of them came in the last few hours we fished the deep stuff. Fish were taking hammer time, white/dew spinny with a TG fly, dew spinny with a lemon/lime fly, and a few even took spoons.
