My buddy and I arrived at American lake around 5:30 and had lines in the water shortly after. We launched from the WDFW launch and headed west of the Island and started trolling. I had a bite early on with a pink dodger and pink/pearl apex tipped with Berkeley Power Maggots on the down rigger around 30 feet down. Lost the fish just before we could net it. Slowed considerably after that. My buddy was long lining a sling blade and a wedding ring with Power Maggots and got a hit but no hookup. Finally landed a fish about 15-16 inches around 8:15 on a pink squidy thing with a pink slingblade. Leader length was about 16 inches, 30 pulls back off the downrigger ball. Tight Lines!

thanks for the report. Were you using a pink squid or a Wannafish Squiddy Thang Pink?

Hi Toni,

It was not a Wannafish brand. It was some sort of squid-like inline spinner. If I can find the packaging I will let you know exactly what it was.
