KJ pluggin Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 We made three trips out to the bank this past weekend for an exhausting second weekend of the KD salmon derby. We fished Sat. AM, PM, and Sun. AM going 29 for 38. We had a pretty hot morning bite both of the days starting each of them with a triple. Each morning we had good action from 5:00 to 7:30, then the bite kind of died off untill 9:30. From 9:30 to 12:00 (when we pulled lines) the fish were catch-able but we had to work a lot harder for our fish. Dipsies and riggers were both hot for us this weekend, and just a few hits for us on copper. Most of the fish we took this weekend were 100' to 150' down using FF combos and plugs. Aqua and glow flies paired with white and chrome paddles, and Ace hi double glow plugs were the best for us. We fished 120 to 130 FOW during sunrise and sunset periods and 140 to 160 FOW during mid-day. Most of the fish we caught were between 5# and 10# and a pair of 16+ fish that we weighed in for the derby were our biggest. We didn't find the big fish we were looking for, but it was a fun weekend. We will be out in SB for an extended trip from the 7th to the 14th so feel free to stop in and say hi if your in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJ pluggin Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 Nice piles of fish. How did you do in the tourney?The official standings will not come out until later this week, but I think the two fish that we weighed in just made it into the payout. This year the payout went to the top 200 fish over the 9 day tourney. The winning fish was 28.16 lbs and the bottom was just over 16 lbs. Last year there was over 2700 entries into the tournament, so I am pretty happy with getting one or two fish into the top 200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
