    Do you just look at the mouth and ignore the rest of the fish? I did that earlier this season and I was told it was a coho and those catches were no different than what you see today. So I guess I'll just call them fish. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

    Anal fin closeup. I count 13-15 (coho) not the 15-17(king). But I will do the fold test on the next one. I think the more information the better.

    Fished through channel, pulled one sheephead and a small throwback king just on the outside in 35fow. Proceeded out to 80ft and dropped lines working the area between 80-125. Went 3 for 6 with a nice 8# coho hanging on to my uv green flounder pounder. 3 other releases that spit the hook out. DR was down 99ft, on east troll, 2.6 sog, ball temp 46.8, bk 35, in 115fow. Anything I had that was uv took a hit no matter what the pattern or lure make. Waves were 2-3 feet from the south and se. Gentle rollers. Only saw 3 other boats out at depth. DRs and 270 cu took hits.

    Good luck, seeing any staging down in your area or have they run already? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

    Don't know yet. I was running out to fast to mark shallow water fish. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

    Always a easy one to miss. Coho=spots upper part of tail, flaky skin and white gums (need to zoom in on gums). Picture angle is very deceiving because of the sunlight. Two nice eaters though. Still would like to find the bigger ones?

    It will probably be a little bouncy tomorrow also, if their model doesn't get itself together. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

    Fished 7:30-11:30, 60-115fow, 1/1 small king on lemonberry spoon on rigger 75 down, in 90fow, sog 2.7, sw troll, ball temp 45. Released him back ino lake. No other hits. Forecasted waves were way off. Had 3 ft chop most of the time. Most marks were in the 45-75 ft range, very few or none deeper. Had a couple of tangles with dipsy and rigger. Strong currents today pushing them into each other. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

    Fished 80-125, mostly 115 fow depth. 1/1 catching a 4# coho on a caramel dolphin on 270 cu, 2.5 sog south troll in 121fow. Lots of marks, but no biters. Tim joined me again today. But the real story of day was the great help I got from two separate groups of people. My truck broke down in the dnr launch, so I couldn't retrieve my boat. A sailor named Pat, unhitched his sailboat trailer and hauled me out. (Hero #1) I believe he lives near me, so after I thanked him and I will definitely offer him some fresh catches, when I see him. (Heroes#2) Pat ("Creekerman" his handle) and Mike, brothers helped me get the boat home. I was able to thank them and give them a bunch of fish from my freezer. They had not caught any today. So those rescues I have done in the past, came back to save me. Thanks again to them and others Tim and Brad for your help also.

    King salmon tail(added picture ) has spots over entire tail. Coho does not, just upper portion as does the one I caught. It is a tricky one to identify. If it didn't flake so much as coho usually do I would have though the same. Thanks.
  22. littleboat
    Closeup of spots on tail. Only upper portion not entire tail as a king would be.
