  1. What a scorecard you got today. I guess the morning bite is back! Congrats
  2. I have used all brands. I noticed the ones using the bathroom chain seem to break or untie the easiest. Maybe I'm just not letting the fish tire out enough. I brought several catches hand over hand right to the boat within my grasp at times only to have the rig break at the skirt or untie at the connection to the chain right in front of me as I was netting the fish.
  3. 0 for 2, 80-110 fow, 1st was a SteelHead, jumped high in the air and slipped my caramel spoon mag size on my 8 color adjustable lead core, full out this time as I pulled him in, south troll, 2.4 sog. 2nd was a king, broke my green uv meat rig just above the top skirt, at least I still got my sd. Sw troll, 2.4 sog off rigger down 65, bk 60. I think I should have let him run longer to wear him out. It seemed too much pressure on the meat rig line. I have had several break on me lately. I'm very disappointed in their quality since they seemed to have changed their tying process. I have used all brands. I have had them break in all areas up and down the rig in the skirt areas and when they tie them to their swivels if one is part of the setup. Very crowded at the launch ramp. Good thing the "Littleboat" was able to maneuver thru the mess. Great night otherwise.
  4. Tough seas, nice catches. Larger boat, Four Winns made the trip?
  5. Nice catch and pictures. Did you have alot of bait markings?
  6. Fished 5-9:30pm, went south this evening. 80-105 fow 1 for 1, 9.6# king salmon Fish hit at 7:41pm, 101fow, on green uv meat rig, net minder sd, braided dipsy, set on 1, 130bk, north troll, sog 2.5. I marked bait everywhere. I'm surprised anyone caught anything.
  7. What's are you using on the end of the spindoctor for a lure/bait? Nice size chinook!
  8. Sounds like a well coordinated setup. How waving does it have to get before you worry about lines tangling , especially in strong currents and turning?
  9. Fished from 6-9pm Lake was flat, 1 for 2, 1st hit a steel head 6:30 pm, jumped 6-8 feet out of the water. Lost him as he tangled my board into my dipsy and slipped the hook. He hit my 200 copper 32#.with a green NBK spoon, sog 2.5, sw troll in 94fow. 2nd was a 6.3# king, on a dipsy with a green/pearl 8" flasher and green uv meat rig, se troll, 2.6 sog. 1st time I was able to put 6 rods in the water, when the wife came on the littleboat. Beautiful night.
  10. Were you seeing alot of bait marks? As many as the other 2 nights?
  11. Fished 6:00-9pm 1/1 lake trout on dr with blue ice meat rig and green pearl sd, down 79, back 50 in 91fow on sw troll. 2.5sog. Hit came at 6:30 as soon I put it in the water. Lots of bait in area. Nothing after that, not even a bump. Lake was flat. Beautiful evening. Fish was 7.09# covered 80-128 fow
  12. Real nice catch and great pictures! What was your surface temperature?
  13. It is a brave crew that faces the peril of the seas and brings back gold. May the fish be with you.
  14. 0/2 , went south this evening. Waves were 3ft, never laid down. Fished 50-89fow. 1 release on a rigger with green ice meat rig on north troll 2.6sog, back 50ft, down 50ft, in 88 fow . Spit the hook out as I tried to reel him in. 2nd one bit on my wire dipsy with a blue/pearl sd and blue ice meat rig. He torn off the meat rig part leaving the sd and 3 tinsel skirts in 60fow, diver was back 80,set 3. North troll same speed. Only put 3 rods in the water, we were bouncing so much. 3rd line was a chicken wing spoon on a five color. Water was 44 degrees 35 down in 50fow. Didn't want the tangles either. I think it finally laid down as we dock.
  15. Just reward for rough ride on the lake. Wife and I saw a boat pounding the waves heading out, didn't look like alot of fun. Congrats for hanging on out there.
  16. 0/1 the best I could do was a simple release. Alot of junk floating midwater. Had a tangle when some of it pulled my 5 color into my dipsy. Fished 110-150 fow, just a few marks also. Very disappointing night. I heard a few bites on the radio. Fish finder showed a 50 ft deep thermocline. It seemed to really effect the area fishing.
  17. Lost 10" flasher and meat rig. ( ouch$$$). Flasher got cranked up into the pole eyelet and wife kept cranking, hence the breakage. Not her fault, I didn't realize how close it was while I was trying to net the fish. I'll be out there tonight, if I get my honey-dos done.
  18. 0 for 1, lost a king at the boat when the line broke. Had him on a green/ pearl 10" flasher and speckled dick meat rig as I pulled him up to the net. 131 fow, nw troll, sog 2.6, dr down 55ft, back 30'. Time to replace some old lines.
  19. I never caught one. Still working on it. Congrats on the steelheads great size.
