Ravbowhunter Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 We set up in 60 fow at about 5:15 and started west. Picked up two nice steel in 115 fow, one on a 150 copper, the other on a braid dipsey back 65. Grabbed a mid teens king shortly thereafter on a full core. His initial run took me out to 750' of line, buried the board for about 10 minutes and tangled with the copper on the other side of the boat! Was thankful to get him in the boat. Turned north in about 150 fow and picked up another mid teens king on the 150 copper. Got a tug on the leadcore but the braid broke off right at the board instantly (line must have been weak from the first king). Was able to recover the board but lost the core and a moonshine spoon! Searched for fish the rest of the morning only to find one more nice steel 75 down on the rigger in 110 fow. Finished the day 5-6 all nice, healthy fish. Definitely much slower than last weekend but a great morning on the water nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoJoRisin' Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 We setup similar location to you and stayed in that area and went 10 for 10 with 8 kings (from 8 lbs up to 18.5 lbs), 1 steel (8 lbs) and 1 brown (8 lbs). After 8:30 or so it really slowed for us and we only got 2 more after it slowed up. We moved out to 100 but did not find anything and when we were headed back towards the piers in 65 we took our last smaller king as we were pulling lines. After the 2 prior trips where we were 10 for 17 and 10 for ? only having 10 hits seemed slow. With the lack of steel and no coho in this catch that is why we had less action and higher % landed. Maybe the 'hos have moved on further north so the number of misses has gone down?We did take a few kings up really high in warm water and the down temp was varying quite a bit with the SW winds. 30 down was good for us and as said when the sun got up the fish scattered along with all of the boats. We appeared to be the shallowest boat in the area until we moved out after they scattered. I mentioned to the guys that this was more like "normal" fishing where it was tough after the early bite.Winds are changing every day now so it should keep the temps mixed up and hopefully not 70 from top to bottom out to 100 FOW.
