    So the spring isn't required then? No issue with mono getting frayed by the arm? Thanks for the tip

    Complete mono no braid I ran out a long leader though, 80" so I wonder if I ran too far of a leader?

    So I ran my slide diver for the first time this morning and really liked them but I noticed when we hooked up that they did not do very well with sliding down the line. Anything I may need to change or tips to prevent this from happening? I rigged per the instructions and video, just wondering if there is something else I may need to do. As always, I appreciate any feedback Thanks Tomy

    Headed out with my brother and Erruprecht this morning at 5:30. We fished water from 100 FOW to 200 FOW. Seemed like our fish came around the 150' mark. We ran 2 riggers, one slide diver and a dodger with peanut fly. First part of the morning was a bit hectic but then slowed down for us. Looked like boats were West of us. We didn't kill them but ended up with 1 skippy, 1 11# king, 1 10# steelhead and another 3 3# steelhead. Had the king run right into my slide diver rig and caused me to lose my entire rig! After that it died off as that was producing for us. We went 4 for 6. Set-ups that took fish: DW Frog 48' down over 120 FOW DW Carmel Dolphin 60' down over 150 FOW Red 00 Dodger with peanut fly & dipsy - up high Slide diver with red/white spoon up high We know everyone was out fishing us but just couldn't get things to stay strong for us out there. Oh well, gorgeous morning to fish. Tomy

    I agree with Pike Hunter, read posts and get a feel for what is working ou there. I had a real slow year last year but I feel more confident and seem to be more consistent this year from all the help and tips I have received from everyone on this site. A lot of helpful people on this site.

    Went out with Erupprecht this morning, we set up in 70 FOW on the edge of the mudline and worked 70 FOW to 90 FOW from the bay down past Shipbuilders. We ended up with 4 kings, 2 skippy, 1 8#, and one nicer fish, maybe 16#. Riggers parked at 50 down with frog color spoons did 2, carmel dolphin at 46 down did the other 2. We were off the water by 10 Happy Memorial Day Tomy

    Great job and report

    Sounds like we did pretty much the same as everyone. We worked water north of the mud line from 70 FOW to 90 FOW. We took 2 kings first thing on a glow frog parked on a 42 rigger. Then I put out a set that I have been wanting to try out, put a 00 red dodger with a blue/green/gold peanut fly behind a orange dipsy parked at 60 feet of line out. Immediately took a nice acrobatic steelhead. That set would take one more small steelhead. Thanks to a tip from Chris (momay4000), we put out a Carmel Dolphin and took one more king at 55 rigger. Ended the day with 3 kings and 2 steelhead. Beautiful morning to fish Tomy

    Nice report. Wish I could have made it out with you guys this morning

    Thanks for the report, makes me feel a little better that it wasn't only me that had a hard time out there, last night was a deserted screen.

    How long could it take to clear up? I guess some sort of rain event every day will not help matters
  24. tlombardozzi
    It didn't clear up until we got past the river

    I headed out with Erupprecht this afternoon and as soon as we pasted the launch, Alewifes were jumping all around the boat with flocks of seagulls gorging themselves. When we reached the lake, all you could see was chocolate water with floating debris. We ran all the way West past the river before we started seeing cleaner water. We set up two riggers with a wire dipsy and started in 55 FOW, We continued West and got out to 70FOW with still not marking a fish. Since all the water inside was mud we moved out further to 105 FOW, still nothing. Finally we turned started back towards the bay and a rod fires, nobody home. We just could not find any fish tonight. We ran froggy flow DW, BF SSW and an orange & white R&R spoon (this is what fired). On the dipsy we ran a green dot SD with a mirage fly. I really didn't think changing lures would make a difference since we never marked anything so I just stayed with that. Very frustrating....I just wonder if fish are in the bay doing the same thing as the seagulls, gorging on Alewifes. Oh well, it was calm seas and it actually turned out to be a beautiful night. We seemed to be the only ones out there. Hope to get out this weekend, hopefully we can bounce back. Tomy
