Ran out to first net north of pier and went out past it to 145 FOW set lines and ran SW. 80 dn temp was 58 to 61 not good marked a few decent fish in top 25ft assumed to be Steelhead so put out a couple of half cores and got a 4lb Steelhead ok that works. lost a couple more steelhead before we got another one in the box but no kings been running spoons 80 dn and 100 dn on riggers no takers ran several dipsey fly combos between 150 and 220 back on 2.5 finally got a 8lb King in 177ft on a dipsey just before sundown. Pulled lines and reset with glow spoons 70 and 90dn on riggers put a glow spoon on one dipsey and a Siggs blue green glow on other ran em back 150 turned back in after about 15 min decided to throw out a couple of sliders that turned out to work got 2 small kings on same setup within 15 min Moonshine dbl orange spoon on free slider rigger set at 90 dn. Had to change course to avoid the coal ship coming in and never got another hit so called it a night 5 for 7.

Nice job Jim. We need the a couple of days of strong East or North winds to get some cold water in close to shore.
