  1. Fished 7-11am 45-69fow, 2 for 2, both small kings, 2 yr old salmon, 5#-4oz and 6#-6oz. Both downrigger hits, on N and S troll 2.2-2.8 mph@ ball. One on GLT Dolphin mag the other on a Bloody Booger mag. Both fish caught on rigger ball at 24-26 ft down in 50-54 fow. 1st one was at 7:30am the other at 9:02am. Ball temp was 49° and 50° at depth caught. Ran 2C, 3C, 4C, 5C and 7C, 1 diver and both riggers. Only hits were on the same rigger (stb) with 2 different lures. I was hoping to get a steelhead and a coho. Marked alot fish in the 40-60ft range. Looks like its the start of the small fish season. The last big fish I caught late in the fall was a 12.8# steelhead on an 8C on Oct30, 2022. I wonder if I can break that this year? With the tight thermocline I wasn't sure how the day would turnout. But it was very nice out there.
  2. Nice walleye! Sent from my SM-A156U1 using Great Lakes Fisherman mobile app
  3. What great action and excitement catching and pulling those beasts in!
  4. You did Good! Congratulations! Nice catch while it calm down last night.
  5. Nice size king for your effort. You're right currents can be a real challenge.
  6. It had very red meat. All are going to my friends smoker. All done! Used a "dry rub" process.
  7. Went 3 for 4 today. 2 steelhead and 1 king. Fished 70-120. Best was 109-116. Waves were 2-3ft but eventually stayed 1fts. Caught big king 14#-11oz and small steelhead (3.14#) on fake meat (blue in color) with scented herring oil stuffed into head holder and pasted on fake meat. The meat rig was pulled with a spotted green SD. On 300ws (8:17am), king, 14#-11oz, 1.8 mph @ball, SE trl, ws depth 71.4ft, fow 116. (8:50am), steelhead, 3.14#, 2.1 mph@ball, SE trl, ws depth 60.6ft, 109fow (9:58am), steelhead, 6#-11oz, 3.1 mph @ball, N trl, ball temp 58.5, depth 47, 115.3 fow, lure Bloody Booger mag
  8. Love the late bites, always boost the home front when least expected, also 3 extra rods help. Sounds like you may have a new fishing partner.
  9. Great bite Reel-y-Hooked! A complete limit by 7:03am...Amazing!....Congratulations!
  10. How long is the lead on your wire divers?
  11. Great catches! Way to pull them in and reposition yourselves. You need another cooler! Keep it going!
  12. Looks like some nice size kings.
  13. Great start to a week. It gets deep really fast. I've always enjoyed that port and camping nearby. What brand of meat were you using?
  14. Nice night for fishing, nice coho, surprised with that fishfinder picture more weren't biting....what's up with that? Solo fishing is certainly a challenge. 3 rods vs 6, 9 or more change the results.
