Decided to have a late start with work today so I could get some fishing in this morning. Water was nice and calm, overcast skies, just a perfect day. I met member SeattleSteeler on the water. Very nice guy! We chatted for a while and exchanged contact info. He already had 3 fish to the boat by the time I made it out there. He also had a pontoon set up that was SWEEEEET!!

As for fishing, I started in the usual spot right in front of the docks in 50-60ft of water trolling clown dodger and green wedding ring. Had my limit in about an hour and a half. Lost a few Kokes and one really nice triploid. The bite is definately picking up again. I got a new smoker and we are running through fish really fast now so I'm gonna be out all weekend hopefully getting limits. Tight lines Yall.

Well I see I'm missing it again , Hum tell me Dj Im wondering how far the distance is on the rigs your using with the glow clown blade , from the end of the blade to the nose of the lure in inches swivel and all. must be some where between 14 to 15 inches just guessing? and are you putting a non slip loop in the leader for quick disconnect as well. I ve have discovered that number 14-15 gets the good action from the lure in most cases , the again I have re tuned most all of my dodgers for best belly action adding to the movement of the lure also, of course the troll speed much over 1.2 to 1,5 at most keeps it all working evenly at least for me , I guess maybe it would be safer to say what ever gives the best action for the gear and boat might be different for everybody maybe? Your method and positioning on the water seems to be constant ,. kinda like it was last year when I fished the lake . Hey keep the smoker full I might have a brine mixture you might not know about with the fruit juice base really good on coho same stuff just bigger old recipe the one Ric uses for his smoked salmon up at Callam Bay ,
Jack Mackerel Seafoods . If ya look on Face Book you'll find his web site roll through it and find the pictures I don;t think I've ever said I don't eat fish peroid However the smoked coho pate with the little line over the e That is, the best ! covered with a honey glaze ummmm good ! He and I go back to the seventy's and eighty's He was my mentor untill I started catching bigger and more fish although He now holds the ranking for beeing first now 49 # winter king rod and reel trolling a couple of yeas ago Neah Bay area . Beats out my 42# Elwa hen from 89, damn those were the good ole day with old wardon Haw trying to catch us We all had to go the the Callam County Court to pay fines once or twice. We built the little blue and white cabin just up the street from his house on the other side of the road , It was called Poachers Cove
a lot more to the story lot of funny stuff and many fish lot of old pics to see , great stuff for sure . I thinking about hitin the ole fishin hole Saturday just never know, If ya see a little shiny green boat /w Johnson 9.9 on the back that would be me
