KJ pluggin Posted June 21, 2010 Posted June 21, 2010 Finally made it out to the bank for our first trip of the year with my wife, cousin and dad. We got lines set by about 6:00 which I thought was pretty good since we live 2 1/2 hours away. We set up just outside of the pack on a north troll. At 6:45 we took our first hit on a dipsy which quickly turned into a double! From there on we picked away at them with one more double in the mix ending op 10 for 10 and pulled lines at 11:00. We did most of our damage with riggers and copper with a mix of spoons and FF combos. Not sure what our best depth was since our sonar unit froze up on us for a few hours, but my guess is we spent most of our time in 130 to 160 FOW. We also had one of our downriggers quit on us towards the end of the trip. I guess that's why they call it a shakedown trip, at least we had some descent fishing. Here is what worked for us. Dipsy set on 2, 215 LOC, 11" char. glow Hot Spot & green glow fly (18.5# king) rigger, 90 dn, mag flounder pounder spoon ( 3 small kings ) rigger, 83 dn, tin can & aqua fly (16# king) rigger, 60 dn, hud special, (small king) 300 copper, mag mongolian beef spoon (18.5#, 3# kings) 100 copper, mag blue dolphin (small king) 150 copper, mixed veggies (small king)
