Holland 5-5 am

[Far Beyond Driven]

Difference a week makes. 11 boats at the channel mouth this weekend unlike being the only one in there last week.

Last Saturday fished the pier heads alone and went 13/17, releasing anything under 6# as it was obvious we were going to box out. 10 fish we took home were 106#. Should have kept that one quiet - we were sticking rods in the diver holders and sitting down as the big boats motored off to the horizon. Nothing to see here.....

Planned to go out of Holland Monday night but a look at the pier cam showed a couple boats in there, grabbed dinner and went to Saugy instead, started at 7 and fished until dark going 7/10 with 6 nice kings and a nice brown.

This morning fished Holland again, grabbed a few nice kings early and then it slowed way down, saw some seagulls working up north in close and went up there and found a school no one else was working. Smaller fish this time, ended up with a shaker, 3 ~8# kings, a couple low double digit kings, 2 browns and 2 coho and let a couple shakers go.

All three trips 75% of the fish came on slide divers. Riggers and short cores at the same depths have been all but ignored, even with the same lures. At one point today we had 6 blue dolphins down and the only one getting hit was a Fuzzy Bear on the diver.....

Haven't taken the Four Winns out of the barn yet and I've got over 600# of fish this year. What a spring.
