Killin' It Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 Got up this morning with high hopes!! I met up with Hollandpipper and a good friend and launched the boat from the state part and made my way to the big lake. For once we were running ahead of sched. and powered down the boat in 40 FOW. I check the graph to find PILES OF FISH!!! We sat and waited for the clock to switch to 6 am and started to set lines and went on a West troll twards a mark I had in the GPS from the night before. A half hour later and alot of action we started working a temp break that we picked up a few fish from. by 9 am we had 9 fish in the box. One being a 17.10 pound king that came on a 10 " Blue/Chrome SD with a Bush Lite Big Weenie Fly.(This was my top day time flasher fly combo last year) We managed 1 more fish before noon and snuck back inside looking for one more bonus point steelhead, We marked alot, but could not get them to go so we pulled lines and went in. We met everyone at the fish cleaning stations to share stories and have a few soda pops:) Hot lures: Small Confusion stinger 55 down on rigger (3 fish) DW SS Blue Dolphin 77 down on a rigger (3 fish) Mixed Veggie standard on 250 copper (2 fish) Blue/Chrome SD with Blue chrome fly (1 fish) Copper/pink thin fin on a mono line 150 back from the board on a high line (1 fish) All in all 10 for 10
Just Hook'n Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 Man Dave, nice picture. I have one similar that I will have to post. Our day did not go so well, but we made it home safe and have stories to share and had fun (if you want to call it that) with friends.
Killin' It Posted June 5, 2011 Author Posted June 5, 2011 Holland Pipper took that picture, I left my camera in the truck... opps.
Nailer Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 Great morning Dave, Alex,and crew. We drove over the fish in close just to spend the day missing fish. Official count for us was 1 for 7
Killin' It Posted June 6, 2011 Author Posted June 6, 2011 I am going to try the exact some program in the morning my Father in law wants to go fishing, we shall see how it works out.
Hollandpiper Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 nice job dave how did you finish in tthe tournyWe finished the tourney in 2nd place. 0.25 points behind Dirty Dog. We did take Big Fish.
Killin' It Posted June 6, 2011 Author Posted June 6, 2011 I can't take any of the credit. I just drove the boat and picked lures. Alex and my buddy Dane fought most of the fish and netted them;)
