Short version : 4/5 fished 89 fow - 150 fow 2.5 average sog hard to tell with the waves. fish seemed to like the 137-142 range we had riggers down 60 wonderbread glow spoon 1 fish . spoon green glow spoon with white and black ladder 1 caught 1 lost . dipsey diver out 185 of setting 3 large white glow paddle with pickled sunshine fly caught 1 DW deeper diver out 190 chrome / green spotted flasher blue fly setting 3 caught 1 south east troll going with the waves was best(for us mainly because it was so wavy maybe a north south troll would work better ) . No luck with a chrome j plug . 

Long : Great morning fishing ! 4/5 Arrived at the launch around 5:20 am to a mostly empty lot . The lake was rough. Started setting lines around 6am 6:20 am in 89 fow north west troll ( into the waves as we set lines) green glow white and black strip down the center ( don’t know the name) spoon went on a rigger down 60 speed was 2.5ish sog next fish was in 97 fow same speed and direction down 60  on a wonderbread glow spoon . Shortly after we lost a fish on the green glow spoon . Then things slowed down for about an hour we kept the samE northwest troll so we ended up in 150 fow most markings where in about 142-137 fow so we turned around headind south east with the waves  and in about 139 fow large DW double pearl glow paddle with a pickled sunshine fly went landed I believe a nice coho . Later we landed another on a diver chrome flasher with blue fly coho or steelhead not sure , I’m not good at fish ID had a great time beautiful weather !

Look like steelhead to me.  White mouth is a give away give them a quick dental exam next time.
