bluedevil Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Fished this morning and went 2 for 3. I put the boat onto a NW run after clearing the pier heads and set up in about 100' fow, water began to warm a little there. First fish hit a free slider lemon ice spoon with rigger set at 75' sitting over 130' fow. Second fish came on a blue dolphin on the rigger set down to 75' sitting over 145' fow. Third came on the free sliding lemon ice spoon again with rigger set at 90' sitting over 160 fow. Radio chatter sounded like most boats doing about the same as we did. 160-180 seemed to be the best but we got off the lake about 12:30pm cause of the building waves and the stiff NW wind.

huntingfool43 Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Nice going Matt. Larry i heard the Toy Box was on the disabled list. At least nothing went through the block but it sucks being without a boat this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kings Around Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 We fished Saturday morning also. Tough fishing for us. We ended up 5 for 6, releasing a laker and a shaker. We kept 2 kings and 1 Steelhead. Fish came in 200-230 FOW. Took 2 fish (king and laker) on Magnum Moonshine Night Crawler 90 down on rigger. Took the steelhead on a bird core with double orange cruch. Took 1 king off a 1 1/2 dipsy 200 back with a monkey puke. Can't remember the other 2 hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a hollar, I'm willing to talk with just about anyone, especially when I'm not catching any fish....I get bored easily:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
