    SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

    Fishing has just been nothing but super out of sandy and the whole south shore from what ive been hearing , friday evening started out the weekend in 80 fow and got set with wire"s out 150 ,180 1.5 setting and 220 and 240 2.5 setting with spin doctors flys( chrome green dot) (white green dot) 42nd and the nbk and some DM ss on the rigger"s hit 100fow and wires started ripping boated 5 fish in the mid 20lb class then we hook what we thought was going too be a top derby fish 45 mins later we boat a 24lb foul hooked up side the head that came in like a dead log got dark and wasted the last hour with him.

    saturday morning went west found fish right out front of the pump house worked them over with the same stuff in the water with the exception of pro trolls on the rigger deep and a couple of spoons on the rigger that pulled some long skinny 8-9lb steelhead with there heads looking too big for there bodys, skinny steelhead this year for sure makes me think? would end the morning with 10 kings in the 20 too 26lb range with another half dozon smaller mixed sized ones from 7 to 12lb with a few browns and a laker.

    Sunday was a carbon copy of saturday with the exception of a 28 and a 29lb but dicided too not go weigh them in and just stay out and keep the hunt going for a bigger one that never happened . The fish got there feed bags on and are getting bigger everyday will be interesting too see what happens the last week of the Loc derby.

    went out at 3pm motored down too the pump house set up in 80fow trolled NNW to west off the nose in 180 fow, pulled fish all the way there and back, was all most like spring fishing, the temps would changing every few mins , lots of warm and cold pockets , ran 4 divers with spinny flys , and spoons of green/black & black/purple off the 4 riggers from 30 to 70 down, also had leadcore's off the otter boats that pulled a few steelhead.but it was mostly a king bite with one brown and two lakers and 5 or 6 steely's and 12 kings from 8lb too 20lb nothing huge . sorry for the short report . Capt john

    ====================

  3. we could help ya a little better if we new what kind of gear you have on the boat, rigger's, dipsys , copper , leadcore ? also do you own flasher and fly set ups like pro trolls or spin doctors? and what do you have for spoons NK , stinger , dream weaver"s ? weather and wind will play a factor on how deep and where the fish will be holding so it would be a good thing too keep an eye on the reports section here on this site closer too the date you are going too fish.

  4. For kings, the holo green herring in "Crusher" or "Savant" sizes are very reliable spoons.......... followed closely by Natural Born Killer and Holo Blue Herring...... you won't be dissapointed.....

    hey mike, i see the NBK looks like everyone"s die hard out there and the lauoies farm looks like the NBK everyone has , so my question is are we talking savant name"s on there site ? ill probley end up getting both of them. thx eveyone for there imput

    SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS Started off slow on friday evening for a little evening pre fishing, marked a lot of bait and fish in the 75 too 100 fow but they were just not hitting ended up hooking just two fish in the two hours we were out but we new they were there with some big hooks on the fish finder so we thought this is were will start in the morning for day one of the pro am and these fish mite turn on in the morning.

    Saturday Day 1

    hit the water at 5am and motored out too 50 fow and started setting up with the auto polit set on a north west heading , got everything in the water and started marking fish in that same 75 too 100 fow but not takers fished it for about two hour with out a touch and we were off the pump house by this time. so we decided too slide out to try and find some fish that were out side of the bait that mite be hungry. Set on a north north west heading now screen went blank till we hit a 190 fow and bang we got a ripper on the wire my mate ellot is on the rod and 30 seconds later the other wire firer"s yep were doubled up ! then 4 color core starts ripping tripled up, we would boat all three , one king over 20lb one 10lbs and a 9lb steelhead we marked the way point and would work this small area for the rest of the time we had left and would take about 25 hits up grading are three fish box as best we could 11 am came and we picked up and ran in too make weigh in at the oak, we get too weigh in and i here on the mic a 75 point box being weighed in by another team in the open and im like dam this is going too be close just hoping we finish in the money after pre check with 5 mins left for weigh in we put are big fish on the scale and it weighed just a hair under 25lb and was leading big fish of the day and are tottle points for are box was 85 somthing and we were the new leaders ! two teams weighed in behind us and i waited too see and we would hold on too win the saturday over all and the big fish award ! :)

    Sunday Day 2

    hit the water same time this time motored right out with plans too hit the same weigh point of the day before , got set up and had action right away we would boat 9 of the 10 hits we took by 830 am with nothing over 11lb and the fish seemed too just turn off like someone hit a switch we would work the area for another hour with out a touch and decided too head north and get outside of the boat traffic worked are way out too 300 fow marking a fish here and there but would only hook smaller fish then we already had and 11am came so we picked up and headed for weigh in too see how are 3 fish would do with are biggest being a 11lb atlantic ! got too weigh in and we would score a 62 or 63 point box netting us a 7th place on day 2 out of the money but we gave it a hell of a try, we even gave it the old rock the boat try after the lake went flat & we marked a fish too try and get em too go. :D over all we had a blast .
