Playin Hooky Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Good twilight bite this AM on wire divers SD/fly on 3 out 140-160 and green glow J 50 down off a rigger. 2 mature kings and 7# coho before 7 AM, another fish took my #5 green glow J when it ran through a wire diver. A dink coho and an 18.5# king on a 250 copper with a black crackle J around 8AM. 100-110 fow best early on a NW or SE troll. Dead slow after that until around 11 when we found another group in 80-90 and took 5 more kings 6-15# and an 11#coho on wire divers SD/fly. Lost 6 fish that hooked up and had a couple other slash/dash with nobody home. Standard DW bloody nose dominated the rigger bite 60 down.Temp (mid 50s) started around 50 down and pushed deeper in shallower water. Early fish were feeding out of temp and later ones were right at the tcline. East wind early did not seem to roll water at all, although a scum line with LOTS of garbage in it set up in 90 fow late.Long cores with spoons, plugs or fc/fly did nothing other than the 1 big fish on the 250 Cu. Couldn't get a SD/fly on a rigger to go either!! Needed 2 more wire divers!Big, thick aggressive fish! One had me weaving the rod though the rigger and wire like last week. Hope to get back later this week. Good luck to all in the meantime.EricPS if you lost a well-worn blue/silver#5 J-plug on a braided line in the past couple days (at least), it was a 6# coho...

Playin Hooky Posted August 23, 2011 Author Share Posted August 23, 2011 Thanks Ken.Can't seem to get a bite going on the rigger presentation of SD/flies. Tried your program, had a number of fish "looking"--swim up and swim with the ball, then go away. Speed at ball was 1.7-2.0Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
