Seahunt is right ...the water has changed. But last thursday I got the hog in 232 fow slightly north of GH. By friday when I was pre-fishing for the tournament, the salmon were gone.

Here's a pic of the hog... the small king is 16 lbs!

Fished 6:30 to 11. Went 3/4 with a small steelie and 2 kings. Since I'm fishing the GH tournament this weekend, not much detail ...but

I landed a 28 lb King on a five color with a coyote spoon around 9:30 this morning. I was fishing solo so it was quite exciting!

Set lines about 6:00 near the ironsides wreck (~120 fow) and trolled NW. picked up a small kin in 135 fow on a free slider with a double orange crush with rigger down 90. Caught a second king in 144 fow on a rigger down 80 with a magnum mixed veggie spoon. From all rods set to 2 fish was about 20 minutes! Continued nw to 175 fow then headed back toward shallower water. Finally picked up a small trout on the rigger with the mixed veggie about an hour before sunset. The only goods marks were down at 115 feet but no takers! My wife's first 2 fish of the season so it was a good night!

Fished out of GH this morning. Went 0 for 1. Had a rip on a 300 copper in 122 FOW with a green coyote flasher and a blue/white fly. The radio chatter indicated no one as doing well although green flasher/flies seemed to be the key. Water was generally below 50 deg sdown 60 feet in most areas. I trolled from 80 out to 140 and back in with a couple of circles along the way!
