GLF Posted October 7, 2007 Posted October 7, 2007 What a BEAUTIFUL day to be on the water. How many days in October are 88 degrees? I glad to have had the chance to get out fishing the last two days. I posted my yesterdays report in Redeyes report located here. Speaking of Redeye.....Brek, his daughter, and grand daughter joined me and my boys out on the lake today. We left the dock at 7:05am. We ran out to 120FOW and dropped in. We marked a nice school of bait fish right away, put the boat on a West troll, and proceeded to set lines. Our first fish came when we hit 150FOW at 8:00am. This was a nice coho that came on a wire diver with an 11" protroll and a Siggs Rigs, Bluegreen Bubble fly, set on #3 with 185' of line out. Our next fish hit in 160FOW at 8:08am. This was on a slider set 20' above the ball on a down rigger set at 80. This was on a Stinger Stingray Prototype. We lost this fish. At 8:15am in 160FOW, the wire diver with the 11" Protroll and Siggs Rigs Bluegreen bubble fly went again. This was set on #3 with 185' of line out. This was a king. At 8:20am, in 145FOW, a rigger down 80' with a Stinger Mag Glow Dolphin took a nice 8lb king. At 8:38am a 6 color core in 135FOW, with a Stinger Stingray prototype goes. We lost this fish before we got it to the boat DOUBLE!!!! At 8:50am in 150FOW, the wire diver set on #3 with 185' of line out went again. We boxed this fish. While this fish was on, a 2 color core with a 4 oz dive bomb and 400' of line on the counter, with a Stinger Stingray Freakin Veggies went. Somehow I managed to farm this fish. At 9:40am we boxed a nice steelhead on a full core with a Stinger Stingray Glow Dolphin. At 10:00am we boxed 8lb king on a Stinger Mag NBK on a full core with a 4oz Dive Bomb. At 11:40am we lost a fish on a wire diver set on #3 with 300' on the counter. This was another 11" protroll flasher with a Siggs Rigs Blue Mist fly. At 12:00pm we lost a fish on a fixed slider 20' above the ball on a rigger set at 144'. This was on a Stinger Stingray Mixed Veggies. We pulled lines at 12:45pm and pulled in a lake trout that was on a Stinger Mag Glow Dolphin on a rigger set at 144'. We let this one go. We marked a lot of bait fish, and fish today from 120 - 180FOW. While cleaning fish, I checked what to see what they were eating. The kings had been eating well. Lots of 2-3" alewives, with a couple of 5" alewives mixed in. The next time I head out, I will be down sizing my baits. My son Hunter is turning into a fishing machine. He wants to reel in fish every time we go out now. Brek's granddaughter and her first salmon. She is ready to go fishing again already!
