Tough fishing today, 110-150fow 2 for 2. One 5#-10oz steelhead and one year old king (small).  Thermocline went from 50-47°down and pass a 100ft. Had a few chasers but the steelhead really took my braid diver at 11:36 am and banged it (screamed!!!!). It was a great sound. It had a mag RV Dancing Anchovy lure. It was set on 3 with 142ft out in 121fow. Puts it about 50ft down. The smaller king came off a rigger with a bloody nose mag at 9:47 am in 122 fow down 92, ball temp was 49.9°.
No buddy wanted to bite any of the small spoons I ran today, so I switched to mags.

FYI- those long arcs on my vertical graph are my downrigger cables being reflected by the the sonar as I make 'S' turns on my course and not fish or bait. I added a bottom picture of an earlier date to show salmon, laketrout, coho or steelhead chasing the lure through the downriggers for a comparison of the different arches.
 
Lake was flat, 5 mph winds. Saw 4 other boats out from the sliders to tunnel park.
Had a feathered friend watch my line for an hour. I think he was telling me to change the lure.

Great pics and you had a passenger. The lake looks beautiful.

Thanks for the report.

Way to still get out there! The lake was beautiful and you pulled in some fish, sounds like it was worth it!
