Quick rundown without a story 

113 fow rigger 80 down2.7-3.0 sog south troll / east troll kinda don’t really know I was a little busy . green and white glow mag spoon with black and white ladder back caught a 13-14 lb king landed that also same water but lost the fish was rigger down 40 with standard size MS green jeans with tape . Weeds at the ramp are very thick. 
 

Now with the story  Friday night when I was leaving with a couple friends to go out on the lake my son was begging to come I told him the next trip I go out I promise you can come ( not an easy task as my wife does  not like being on the big lake with our kids 7,5,3 they get squirmy) . While sitting at work I pulled up the bouy cam it was so calm I though for giggles I’d shoot my wife a text  “let’s take the kids salmon fishing tonight the lake is flat”. She said yes sounds fun so at about 6 we headed for the launch my kids wanted to swim more than they wanted to fish so we swam until about 7:30 then we hit the big water as I was setting my lines I had my wife and oldest  drive , if you were out in that 110 ish fow I sincerely apologize if we were to close or accidentally cut you off ( bit off more than I could chew trying to set lines and teach them how to keep a straight heading ) I set one rigger at 80 and one at 40 then set out a low diver with a white paddle out 150 and a spiny with a green fly I took over the steering and started to head south to try and get away from people to give my son another shot at driving but my youngest was pretty bored and the whining was less than ideal so at that point I decided to pack up after only having lines out for about 20 minutes . I pulled the high diver got that in and then the rigger at 80 down went I handed the pole over to my wife and oldest then the other rigger went as I was starting to reel that fish in the fish they were fighting got wrapped up in my low diver so my attention shifted to landing the larger fish and somehow got it out of the low diver . So at about 8:45 we landed that fish and decided it was a great time to head in . My oldest sons first salmon was a good one ! My wife had a blast too fun night 

As you can tell from the graph photo direction was a challenge

It sounds like to me that your success with a little high intensity chaos just bought a few more trips with your wife and son.  Good work captain!  And congrats to landing that nice size king with a dipsey + SD wrapped around the line.  Never an easy chore.

It must put a smile on a dad’s face to see a son holding that fish. Put that photo in a frame for his room!
Tight lines this weekend. It will be busy.
