Fished out of St. Joe last night. Went 2-5. Hit a school of fish in 97-99 FOW. Lost one fish and caught a small laker on a bloody nose dalmation on DR 65 down. Lost one on blue dolphin on a stacked slider 10' above the same setup. Lost one on a diver on 3, 180 out on a wonderbread. Caught a ~10 king on mix veggies free slider (~40 down) on DR. All fish hit between ~8pm and 8:45pm.

Fished straight out in 90 to 105 FOW last evening. Went 2 for 3, one hit/miss and a ~5lbs King on a green frog 56 down on the DR and one ~10lbs steelhead on a green NBK freeslider (main line down 60). The flys are biting more agressively than the fish!

Went 2 for 3 Friday night out of St. Joe. Fished in 45 to 55 FOW just outside the mudline. Found a school of fish in 50FOW and marked a waypoint. Caught 2 kings by working the way point, all on a south troll. 1 king on Carmel Dolphin 45 down on rigger, and 1 king on Blue Dolphin 35 down on rigger. Found another school of fish in 53 FOW and lost a fish on Carmel Dolphin setup as above. Hope this helps you find some fish this weekend.

Fished out of St. Joe this am and went 1 for 5. Fished 45 to 55 FOW straight out of the piers. Downrigger 40 down with Blue Dophin and Mixed Veggie free slider went 3 times. Dipsey with orange glow frog out 60 on 3 setting went once. Highline on planer board with a fire tiger thin fin landed a 15+ king. Hope this helps you find some fish.

St. Joe - One Big King

Here is the picture of the fish. -
Caugh a nice King (+15lbs) today in 30 FOW (south of the cars) on a bomber red fire tiger 15 down on the rigger and 100 back. How do you add a photo?
-
Fished Sunday evening, started trolling in the channel (nothing doing) and then bobbed around on the waves for 1.5 hrs. Marked fish in 40 FOW and managed to catch 1 (10lbs) king 15 down/50 back on a sliver/red head j-plug. Water temp was 66 degrees, though it would be colder based upon the strong north winds. When do the salmon usually run in St. Joe?
-
Fished Friday evening 6-9pm. Went 2 for 6 (I know it is not a good average, but it is better than the tigers lately!) Fished 80 to 90 FOW. 300' copper with a magnum lemon ice took 1 king and three other hits. Tin can dogger and green/white fly 60 down off downrigger took 1 king and one other hit.

Fished out of St. Joe last night. Started in 325 FOW and fished back towards shore. Went 3-5. 1st fish (laker) came in 280FOW on double orange crush off of 5 colors of lead. Lost a fish on the same set up in 270 FOW. 2nd fish (small king) came in 255 FOW of a mag. lemon ice on 300 ft of copper. Lost a fish on a bumble bee free slider off a rigger down 55ft in 235 FOW. 3rd fish was a small coho on the set up above in 230FOW. Nothing the rest of the way into 170 FOW.

Fished out of St. Joe this morning, didn't get started until 9:30. Went 4 for 7. Two Kings (>10lbs) and two Cohos. Fished straight out and north in 40 to 50 FOW. Best set ups for me were blue dolphin 36 down with a blue/lime free slider on rigger and half core lead with red/green glow frog spoon. Nice to see the kings in close like this. May fish again on Sunday if the weather behaves.
-
Fished solo in the "waves" last night. Made it out to 100 FOW NW of the harbor turned around and trolled back towards the channel. Hit a double in 80 FOW: landed 10+ king on a mongoose spoon off a dispy set on 3, 160 back. Loss the offer fish and tackle before I could get done fighting the first, blue bubble doger and fly of a dispy set on 1, 90 back. Second king 5lbs came in 70 FOW on a blue dolphin off a full core of lead. In 60 FOW picked up a nice Coho on a white/silver fish catcher with a green/sliver fly off the dispy set on 1, 90 back. Decided I had enough fish to clean and was tired of rocking and rolling and called it a night. Should be good fishing all weekend with the stable weather pattern. Good luck.
