Nick, you may want to add a port location to your profile so that people can tell you how to fish where you are located.

end of the sliders south 80 to 120 fow on bottom with a tin can dodger with a light green spin n glow with a green teaser flie behind that, lightly bounce bottom and watch the rod closly.

EXACTLY what Jim said.

If you can't find the right water - just look for the boys from Saugatuck.

Then you know you are in the right spot.

Trash can dodger, 28-30" lead to a green tinsel fly, 6-8' off a cannonball, ball occasionally ticking the bottom.

10" white glow tape spinny, 40" lead to a mirage fly, purple beads, wire diver, walk it back until it ticks the bottom and then reel it in 10'. Kings like this rig too.

Troll N-S to save you the trouble of moving stuff up and down to keep it close to the bottom. 60-120', depending on the cold water.

I don't slow down for lakers and run stuff up high for other fish. Last year we filled the box with lakers in 72' but a full core and rigger down 30' put 3 nice kings in the box with the lakers.

Oh, J-11 rapalas in 10' in November and December seem to catch all kinds of lakers when you're looking for steelies.....
