Fishing Report - June 6th, 2008 PM Trip
Tonight I actually got to do some fun fishing of
my own. Jay & I went out with our friends Jim and Mark for a short
trip tonight and had a ball. After we assassinated about 5000 nasty
ankle-biting flies (I think Jay got 5 of them at once at one point!), we found a nice Steelie and a small King out over
180FOW. The Steelie took a Northern King Seasick Waddler fished off of
a 600' copper rig at 2.4mph down speed, and the king took a Siggs Rigs
Mystery Pulse Fly behind a Green Spin Dr off the wire out 210' on a 2.5
setting, same down speed as the Steelie. The Pulse flies have been
getting bit every time out lately and we're liking them more and more
as the season progresses. Special thanks goes out to my buddies who were more than happy to let me reel in all 600' of copper on a 95 degree night when the steelhead hit! Needless to say, I was completely soaked with sweat when we finally landed the fish. I'll take the copper rods anytime, especially when they produce beautiful fish like that steelhead!
Not a ton of marks tonight until we found a bunch just before dark in about 120FOW. We found some bait and a lot of hooks in a really condensed area and we worked them hard for the last few minutes of our trip but to no avail. Maybe they'll be there again in the morning??
Here's the pic:

We'll be back out at it again on Saturday with another charter.
Until Next Time,
Fish On!!
