salmonslammer Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Our first trip out for the season started slow as we went the first two hours washing baits in 20 to 40 ft. of water south of the piers. We had planned to fish in closer but the armada of boats kept us out. We finally moved out to 60 ft. south of the power plant and took 8 fish in a little over an hour. We took 5 coho and 3 kings weighing 15,13, and 11 pounds. The largest king came on a green jointed rapala 100 feet behind the board. The other 7 fish came on a red with black ladderback thin fin 100 ft. behind the board. I was happy that all equipment worked on the first trip. The kings were an added bonus.

Priority1 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Nice job on the Ho's and Kings. More forage means bigger fish. Keep hammering them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdB Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Nice catch Salmon Slammer! We had a tough go to start out Saturday at St Joe. We didn't lift a rod trolling south until we go to the Cook plant. I didn't see anyone hitting fish on the troll south. We finally starting getting some fish south of Cook in 50-60 ft of water. We ended the day 7 for 11, one king and the rest coho.
