SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

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

Was my second time out in my second year of Lake O. salmon fishing and (knock on wood) haven't been skunked this year. I'm calling that an improvement over a frustrating start last year. :)

Switched my diver rod to wire (from Power Pro) the start of this year and for some reason it helped. I never caught one fish on a diver last year, or on a SpinDoctor/fly combo. But this year it has almost half the fish I've caught so far (compared to the two riggers) and some of the nicer ones.

Fished mainly in the 140-160 depth and found around 70-80 feet down was the best producer. Caught our best King for the day about 30 secs after adjusting the diver from 185 back(1.5 setting) to 240. I don't have any down speed/temp reading yet, so I generally just follow the herd with the hope that they know something. :D

Still learning every time I go out and still find it every bit exciting as the first when that release pops. I owe this site and the many contributors 100% for all the knowledge I have gained, thank you.
