Fished this a.m. 6:15-10:30. Started in 60 fow, and headed southwest--best water was 110-130'. Apparently there were a lot of opinions of best troll direction as boats were traveling every direction! We fished a two person spread of 2 low divers and 4 coppers 150'-300' lengths. The best pole by far was the meat rig 145' back on 1. We caught a coho and 6# Steelie on that rig, and had at least four other tugs that didn't hook well. We changed hooks and then the action stopped--wouldn't you know?? The 3rd fish was a 4 year King--100 back on the High diver that we switched for the 150 copper, once it was obvious they wanted meat. The 4th fish (13# King) came on a 200' copper with a light green J-Plug. Almost all the hits/fish came on a SW troll, just the Steelie, going back north. We marked an incredible number of fish in the 15-30 down range--apparently Steelies, but we couldn't hook them. 3 footers made it a bit difficult to simultaneously maneuver boat/net fish at times but still a nice morning out on the water for sure!!
