Wet day out of Braddocks today! Went 4 for 8 or 9? (booo!) One medium king and 3 smaller ones. One double header. The current was crazy, all fish were hooked going E to W - trying to go the other way you had to go like 7mph to get a 2.5 down speed.
30-50' down was the magic temp, everything caught on spoons, FF didn't fire once.
Lost a nice king on the dipsy, it popped the 20# flouro and took my spoon. Tied another swivel on, 5 min later - same thing. At this time I'm thinking my brother is completely incompetent and can't figure out how to fight a fish, so I set the rod and drag, after tying on another spoon (Palomar knot) and 5 min later I hook up, same dipsy, super light drag - fish runs for 75' or so, I feel a head shake or two and then pop. Spoon #3 gone.
I'm beyond irritated at this point and take off the 20# flouro and put 40# on ( all I had above 20 on me) - and at that point didn't get another hookup on the dipsy.
Did manage one more hookup on the remaining downrigger that was working (2nd one shorted out on/off switch) - must have been a small steelie or something, jumped a few times and spit the hook.
Most action was in 150-175 FOW, 40' down.
I’ve had the same problem with 20# line. I’ve committed that stuff to brown’s and walleye rods. 30# for salmon work.- 1

Fishlander hit Sandy this morning. I don’t think I’ve ever seen zero vehicles at the launch until today. Best fish at 240, most fish at 340. 105-125 down. Michael Jackson on the riggers and a Dusty-P rig on the diver. Very nautical out there. Only other boat I saw didn’t have an engine. Too bad the net man was a rookie.

We had fleas, but they were easily removed. Not nearly as much of a nuisance as the cottonwood.

I have a friend visiting the first week of August and was wondering if anyone had or knew of a house for rent in that area? He requested on the water. If not, any suggestions on where to look? Thanks in advance.

Sorry to hijack, but any suggestions on what to replace it with?

Looks like a lake caught steelhead. We aren’t supposed to talk about those.

I have a muddy tripod for the same reason. I love it. Very comfortable and stable. It’s not “portable”, but you could definitely fashion a set of wheels on the one end to help make it a one man job.
