    Thought that was you a little north and inside of us.

    Went out this afternoon lines in the water around 5:30 pm. Started looking for fish around the sliders in 100-130 fow. And pretty much stayed in the all night trolling SSE, SSW - with SSE and S trolls picking up the most bites. What worked? Well pretty much everything. Ended the night at 10 pm. Went 12/18. Earlier on it was 350-400 coppers, and mag divers back 165. Then switched to 300-350 coppers, and mag divers back 135. Then downriggers 55-75 started hitting. Only thing that didn't get hit was the plug we put out on the 200 copper. I'd say we had 4 hits on meat rigs, 6 hits on flasher flies, and 8 hits on spoons (moonshines). Speed 2.0 to 3.0 mph at the ball.

    Awesome box of silver right there. Heading out in a few hours.

    On a good fishing day, I'll get to the cleaning station and be like "how did this steelhead / coho get in the box". Don't remember catching one!

    Here's a coho tail picture. Sometimes have more spots but usually towards the top of the fin. King tails very spotted like your picture above.

    Nice catch. The tail of the coho looks more like a younger king. There's a lot of kings that size this year.

    They may have been shallow, or they may have been spread out. I marked bait everywhere, but not heavy schools of bait like a week ago.

    I know there are fish around. We just didn't set up on them last night. Talked to a few other boats that were in the 5-10 bites range.

    Couldn't get anything going.

    Fishing now. Worked from 85-150 and back into 110. Very few marks. 1-3 right now.

    Seagull wind forecast shows windy day out of the north. NOAA calling for SE winds. Another wind app calling for 15-20 knots out of SSW.

    Things might change, but looks like I'm going to sit this night shift out. Don't feel like fighting the north wind today.

    I have it set up on starboard just behind my steering wheel dash.

    I bought a bicycle tire vice, and an spare 54" trolling motor pole to mount the transducer. When I'm fishing I slide the vice into an extra track and point the pole in "forward" mode towards the back of the boat. Then swivel it until the downriggers come into view. It helps a few ways - tells me fish are around and if they're swimming into the spread to check things out. It helps me figure out what copper lines to set up to match fish depth. Another thing I noticed is several days, the fish actually swim DOWN to attack the lures - seem them swim 30 feet down to attack. Also seen them swim 40 feet up to attack. So there's that too. I'll take some pictures of the setup next time I'm out.

    Awesome night but couldn't buy a bite after 10 pm to complete our 2 man limit. Wasn't marking any fish either. Fished until 11 with our lures spread between 20-40 down (where the bait was).

    Lines in at 530 pm. Started in 90. Wicked currents out here. SSE and NNW troll directions seem best. 1/3 so far. Lots of fish swimming in to the downrigger at 75 ft but not hitting the flasher fly. Watching them on Livescope.
