Billy V Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 Water temps are finally beginning to re-stabilize out of Fair Haven, but the fish are still really scattered. We worked from 120-630FOW the past two days. Best screen was in either 510FOW or 140-180FOW, although neither was great looking. We found 40 degree water down 90 ft. this weekend. That Maui Wowie rig took three or four hits this weekend, mostly in the early morning. I remembered to take a picture of it for you guys: That's a blue double crush glow spinny in front of a Siggs Rigs Maui fly. It's a neat looking fly...it's blue with what looks to be some mirage in it. We also had bites on the Dalmatian/Blue Dolphin, the Original Hammer Time, the JV Cheerleader, and on an 8" R&R Salmon Assassin pulling a Siggs Rigs Green Hypnotist fly. We didn't have a single spoon fire for us, although we never ventured in to look for browns. It was a slow pick this weekend, but if you stick to your plan and put in the time, you should be able to put some kings in the boat.
GLF Posted August 7, 2007 Posted August 7, 2007 Some really nice fish in the pictures Bill. Did those two Siggs Rigs flies do all the damage?
Billy V Posted August 7, 2007 Author Posted August 7, 2007 Yeah Mike, Siggs Rigs flys have been our #1 go-to set-up for several weeks now. The Blue Dolphin has easily been our number one producer, but the Green Hypnotist and White Crinkle have been very, very good too. And that new Maui fly has been a pleasant surprise this year too.
Billy V Posted August 7, 2007 Author Posted August 7, 2007 Yep, he was missing the back half of the gill plate...looked like he had some misfortune at some point and lost it somehow.
