2UNREEL Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Went out for a few hours mid-day to try for some Steelhead. We saw some high flyers today! Love these things. We had alot of sea fleas so I only ran 1 clean rigger and the rest wire divers and planer boards. South West troll in 110-125fow best. The green Alewife Mikes Eyefly took 4 hits 137ft out, landed 2 nice steelhead. The silver streak mini green with neon green dots?? Like a green perch UV or something took 2 more steelhead on a 10 color. Nice king on a Oil Slick Eyefly 157 back on the wire. King on a Stinger NBK 60 down and a small coho on a 200 Copper with a Streak purple frog. I had a chance to break in the new fish cleaning board I made for the marina(See Below)!
2UNREEL Posted July 5, 2011 Author Posted July 5, 2011 Forgot to mention the wife ok'd autopilot for the boat after having 2 doubles in a row and trying to keep the boat on coarse can be a challenge with my 4yr old at the wheel and my 5yr old sleeping Any recommendations??
Far Beyond Driven Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Kick the net handle out to 8 feet and use it to turn the wheel from the stern.We were trying that one today with a triple on and two of us in the boat. Didn't work, only landed one.....

Eliminator Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Nice Job Andy! I did the auto pilot this spring and will never do with out. It's a definite marriage and friend saver.
