My cousin is getting deployed to "an undisclosed location in the middle east" in a couple weeks, so we went fishin with his dad and bro. Here's the report:

Typical setup was 12 lines; 2 3color cores, 2 half cores, 2 150' 45lb coppers, 2 dipseys, and 4 riggers. Early season, I like to use big spreads if the opportunity presents itself. 2.5mph at the ball; fished from ~7am to about 1:30pm.

We headed straight out to about 170fow and shut down. Took our first hit in 190fow and stayed between there and 210fow for the rest of the day.

The final tally was 11 for 15; 4 steelys, 4 cohos, and 3 kings. Most of the fish were smallish(4-7lbs), but a 10lb king and a 11lb steely made things interesting for a while and were the biggest of the morning.

South trolls are where we took hits, but we didn't really do much troll direction changing. Hits were consistent, but certainly not fast and furious.

The leadcores dominated the steely and coho catch while the riggers down 85-120 took the all the kings. Chipmunk off a half core, stingray NBK on the copper, and DW green/blue dolphins all fired. We took one fish on a blue 3 fly teaser meat rig behind a white pro-chip flasher. Dipseys were the only thing that did not fire.

Good fishin' to anyone heading out! Remember , many folks out there getting boats out this weekend for the first time, so a little extra time, patients, and maybe a frosty brew may come in handy :D

Great job on the fish Jason. I hope your cousin had a great time. Our prayers go out to him while he's over seas.

Ken.
