N II Deep Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Had a great day on the water with my wife Angie. she has not been out on the boat in over 3 years but I was finially able to get her to come out. but on her terms. we didn't leave the house until 8:30, had to stop get gas and snacks. about a mile from the ramp the truck just starts shaking - I'm thinking u-joints at this point. nope - as we slowed down to turn into the ramp we hear a tire on the trailer going down fast. we launch the boat and dealt with that after the boat ride. setup in 80 fow heading north at about 10 am, what a great day to be out - flat setup our 6 rod spread - 2 riggers - 2 wire divers 2 300' coppers did switch out 300' for 200' after marking fish up higher. what worked as we went 2 for 4 rigger with SS blue berry muffin went twice lost one about 10 feet back from the boat. tin can with green spin & Glow on the wire diver pulled a real nice king up to the swim platform then broke off right at the hook as the fish took a turn into the rigger wire. 200 copper with green spatter back ace high plug took a nice king:) was a great trip as Angie was able to bring in her first King. I'm glad she came out it was good for her and I think she enjoyed it.
Just Hook'n Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Very nice Jon. Great to get the wife out and interested in fishing.
mriversinco Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Way to go Jon. Sometimes it's nice to just get out and not feel the pressure of having to fill your box.
BIGTREBLE Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Cool trip. a little Q.T. with wife and fishing to boot.
Paulywood Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Been there done that Jon. They want a fun trip more than a successful one. Good job.
