Far Beyond Driven Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Looking for the following lost on a north troll in 80' between the sliders and Camp Geneva.20# + king with a glow thunderstick and / or mag moonshine mongolian beef - tangled two lines and pulled them both into the wire, breaking them both off. This was after we dragged it for 40 minutes trying to pick apart a quad on kings with me and a 9 year old in the back of the boat.Big king on a 11" paddle with a mirage fly, 5/0 single gammy hook~ 14# king on a mag bloody nose moonshine, ran the boat and got into the wire after jumping in the prop wash??, green spinny and green fly from the DW B4K.Ended up 3 for 11 with a 17# king, 5 and 10# lakers. North troll the whole way, south troll was brutal. Quit at 9:30 as I was frustrated. Most days I'd kill for 11 hits.
Hooked Up Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 nice job! just gives you a reason to "reload" on lures/gear! Yeah-I'd love 11 opportunities on 1 trip!
onlyflyfish4vr Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Same boat for us. MIA a blue dolphin spoon, and a mt/ dew spinny/pickled sunshine fly...then 5 more came unbuttoned. 2 landed.
SUPERTRAMP Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 One of those days Kevin, but having your daughter with u makes it all worth it. Nice job!
Nailer Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 I will add 3 divers with Flashers and flies. One with 300' of wire on it, another with 200' of wire on it, and the third with 100' of wire on it. All 3 hooked to some very pissed off kings!
Far Beyond Driven Posted August 22, 2011 Author Posted August 22, 2011 Not my daughter, but my minister and his son. And if there was ever a day that swearing would have been appropriate.....
Adam Bomb Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 Dang, thats a bummer. I lost a spoon the other day to a rambunctious steelhead with my mom on the rod. He went under the starboard rigger over the diver then came back out the same way he came and got into the port side rigger in about 3 seconds. I grabbed the line, got the net under him just as it snapped. Got the fish and main line spoon, but my Elberta Clipper Free Slider and Standard U of M frog is long gone....lol...Not so bad compared to you cats...OUCH
