Thank you all!

Caught fish in 130-145 fow rigger was down 80 Mrchrome Hailstorm spoon caught two and DW soda SS caught a small one that was on a slider on a rigger down 80 . Lost one on a half bloody nose DW 7 color with a 5oz snap weight . Lost another on a low diver with a green glow spoon with black ladder back . (Lost them while we were doubled up ) exciting morning ! I seem to only catch coho. the only kings I caught this year were during the run, close to the plume and the fish were starting to get some brown color . Any insight possibly on why I’m usually only getting coho could it be Speed ? Maybe depth ? I don’t have a temp or speed probe I usually try to stay around 3 mph sog and watch my diver rod bend . I believe the fish in the pictures are coho . Black gums white mouth , scales falling off .

Set lines at 6:30 pm in 125 ish fow marked plenty of fish all over from 35-the bottom ended up getting one nice coho in 111 fow on a large pearl glow DW paddle with a pickled sunshine fly 135 out on setting two DW deeper diver pulled lines at 8pm

Short version : 4/5 fished 89 fow - 150 fow 2.5 average sog hard to tell with the waves. fish seemed to like the 137-142 range we had riggers down 60 wonderbread glow spoon 1 fish . spoon green glow spoon with white and black ladder 1 caught 1 lost . dipsey diver out 185 of setting 3 large white glow paddle with pickled sunshine fly caught 1 DW deeper diver out 190 chrome / green spotted flasher blue fly setting 3 caught 1 south east troll going with the waves was best(for us mainly because it was so wavy maybe a north south troll would work better ) . No luck with a chrome j plug . Long : Great morning fishing ! 4/5 Arrived at the launch around 5:20 am to a mostly empty lot . The lake was rough. Started setting lines around 6am 6:20 am in 89 fow north west troll ( into the waves as we set lines) green glow white and black strip down the center ( don’t know the name) spoon went on a rigger down 60 speed was 2.5ish sog next fish was in 97 fow same speed and direction down 60 on a wonderbread glow spoon . Shortly after we lost a fish on the green glow spoon . Then things slowed down for about an hour we kept the samE northwest troll so we ended up in 150 fow most markings where in about 142-137 fow so we turned around headind south east with the waves and in about 139 fow large DW double pearl glow paddle with a pickled sunshine fly went landed I believe a nice coho . Later we landed another on a diver chrome flasher with blue fly coho or steelhead not sure , I’m not good at fish ID had a great time beautiful weather !

Do you keep the catfish to eat ? I assume they are very clean coming from the lake . Very cool I didn’t know they were out there biting spoons
