Finally got out on the water tonight. Set up in 60 fow on a west troll at about 5. Took the first hit in 94 fow on a full core with a mixed veggies. The first fish of the year was a shaker that hit while the line was being let out. Second hit came on a rigger set 75 down with a lemon ice spoon in 150 fow again on a west troll. That fish was 7.5 lb king. Last hit of the night came in 175 fow on a east troll on a rigger 75 down with lemon ice spoon. That fish was a 12.5 lb king that caused a lot of havoc right at dark. It ended up tangling up the 200 and 300 foot copper setups. So we will have to see how much of the copper we will be able to save or if it is just going to be easier to buy some new copper. Really not much chatter on the radio and never really marked a lot of fish. Ended up with some sea fleas on the braided dipseys.

Nice job Corey. Hope you can save that copper!

Good luck with your mess. Nice job on the fish.

Great report Corey. Sorry to hear about the tangle, but those chaotic fish are so fun to wrangle!
