Got out first light . Started in 60 ft and worked out to 140 temp was down around 100 ft . A,lot of bait in close . Got 2 knock off right off the bat then searched . Got over some fish and bait and managed 2 kings . One More hit and that was it. Probably the last day with the big boat as tommorow looks to be Nasty . And might pull it tomorrow. Then it will be small boat`n . The 2 fish and most of the hits came on my Gary D rig . It has been my go to this year and I'm very happy with it and has only let me down a few times . Never put a fly out this year . Did not get to tweak it like I wanted to . Can't wait to try it on the " off the mouth " bite . .

My best creek bait has been a j 13 Orange gold rap .

I trib fish for kings a lot as I have a cottage on one . I fish either a j 13 rapala or a mag hot n tot among others lures . The plug bite is usually first light . After that it's Skein. Last year I caught a hand full on plugs , it was mostly skein. I fish a lot of bass and pike and when I come to a spot I fan cast a spinner of some sort , then jig . Sometimes they hit the spinner bait . Or sometimes I can't get a hit on one and it's all jigs . They are either in a chasing mood or they aren't . I feel it's the same with the salmon .

If you are going to cast , spoons are great with maybe a rattle trap or j 13 rapala or diving plug of some sort . If you are going to troll , j plugs or deep divers like a diving long a bomber .If you don't have downriggers . I find the fish like water 12 to 60 ft deep for the most part . Start close and work out . Best time and most consistent will be starting 1 st week of Sept on . First light and Dusk best but it is hit and miss . I troll out of my 16 ft Alumacraft and have a blast . Just watch the weather . Safety first .

Aside from the contaminants in the fish ,this is actually a very health meal . And with all the fish we get , we need to figure out what to do with them . Also I've seen some of you guys . Some of your guts stick out farther than your Johnson .

Go on coastal watch and get the satellite surface temp map if that's what you are looking for I did this morning before I went out because I heard lake flipped and made my decision to go off shore .

I totally agree with this I would run 4 flashers with meat or fly at first . One on each rigger one high one lower like 20 ft apart and one on each dipsey to start . If kings are around and hitting flashers That will be plenty . Find fish and stay on them

The start of the " off the mouth " king fishery . First light / just before dark best . Start close and work your way out . Look for fish on the bottom or just off an hr after first light till an hr before dark . And I Like J Plugs , an underutilized lure IMO .

Nope The fish are changing now Just cured some skein . Thought it would be tighter than it was .

Three islands in front of thousand island park . Good for pike Some base also . Haven't been there in years . My buddy got a 50" musky there .
