Fished from 6:30 to 9:00 pm. Ran south of pier 1/4 mile and set lines starting in 90fow out to 125fow getting a good temp break between 110fow  to 120 fow . Break was at 42fow temp 49 degrees while marking fish just above break. Fishing solo I ran 1 Downrigger  1 wire diver and 1 150 copper. Ran speeds of 2.1 to 2.3. Around 7:30 ish got some action taking 1 king 16.4 lbs 38ft down on rigger using a mag wart frog spoon on a south west troll in 118fow. Turned back heading north in 122fow caught 15.2 lbs king at 8:40 on the 150 copper using a flounder pounder. Headed in after landing fish.

 

Just a heads up, nets are south of pier set in 126fow stretching east to west about 1/2 mile of south pier. Also the fish cleaning station is down for repair.

Great pic of those nice kings.  Out of town guests left this morning & looking forward to getting some of that big king action that everyone is posting about.

Well done! The smile says it all. Thank you for the report and the heads up on the net.

Nice job with the net!  That's always a sketchy part of the solo adventure.
