Port Sheldon 6/17

[WRENCHED 4 IT]

Fished from 5:30 to 11:00 this morning. Found waves were bigger then expected so powered out south into the waves about 2 miles till my back couldn’t take anymore, then turned and went on a north troll. Tried from 100 fow to 174 fow finding fish in the 168 to 172 fow . Went 1-1 catching a 8lbs king using DW dragon slayer and blue bubble fly on a 150 copper. Found temp break at 58 ft down with 48 degrees temp. Ran between 2.0 -2.5 speed at ball. Ran a 6 rod spread using mostly glow spoons early switching to flies later on. Marked fish from 60 ft.down to 115 ft down but couldn’t get them to go, also trolled north only do to waves making it tough to go south on my small boat. If my luck doesn’t change soon I’m going to name my boat Vegetarian. Good  luck everyone 

1 Downrigger set 78 ft  then 96 ft and 125 ft

2 mag wire dipseys set on 2 set back 112 and 123 then tried deeper 156 and 200

1 150 copper

That 8# king will be good eating.

What size is your boat?

Ed it’s a 21 ft Robalo with the strong winds and wave action heading south into the waves wasn’t going to work. By the time we went in it was 2-3 footers.

The wife and I were walking the dog up to channel piers just before dinner. There was definitely a strong wind out. I was wondering how it was affecting the fishing.
