Whitehall - 6/26 PM, 4 for 6

[Mega Byte]

We only fished a few hours last night, but took fish in the 150 - 170 fow range. The biggest was a 17 lb king taken by Bret, our oldest foster boy (his first trip on the big lake). We lost a big steelhead that was peeling line and jumping like crazy.

Boated fish were on:

Rigger 30' down

Rigger 42' down

1 on a diver, 120' out on setting 3

1 on a 200 Cu

Baits were blue meat rig setup with a big blue paddle, yellow spin doctor and fly, green gator spoon and a UV bloody nose spoon. Can't recall what the misses where on. I tried to keep the ball in the 2.2 - 2.4 range.

I heard over the radio a guy picked up a couple in 110 - 120 fow.

That Steelhead may be Walter. We have lost him 3 times at the back of the boat. He jumps and looks at us and spits the lure. 20lb for sure. True story. Have not hooked him in 2 years. Maybe died of old age. Loved a Steelie Stomper on a 2 core way out and way back.

I think two weeks ago we hooked walter north of Whitehall spun 650 feet of mono and kept going

Glad to hear Walter still swims. Must be a state record by now! Going after him next week.
