Seneca 6/12/2013

 

Up at 5:30 but just could not get in gear this morning had three rods in the water at 6:30 am  . First fish to hit just wiggled the rod tip nothing home just thinking about changing lures out and the 27’ rigger acts like a limb or plastic bag is hung up on the cable then the rod pops ????  Just heavy so now I think it was on the line , then it’s fin breaks the surface sees the boat and now I’m along for the ride reels screaming OH-BOY !!!!!! I eyeball Kingerboy and he’s looking the other way……..  Finally get him in the net hooked bad bleeding like a stuck laker…….. 24.5†brown 8.5 or better on the bogo grip……..get squared away and run back thru nothing but on the return trip same rigger 16†or so laker I lose at the boat….. start putting back down and the 21’ rigger goes off with a 18†brown…….. getting ready to run back thru and check the 27’ rigger and DUH it was at 17’ ………wonder how that happen…Kingerboy is giving me that Mutly laugh….. anywho ….. lost a  salmon on the 21’ rigger…… pulled a Dave M. (sodbuster) on the dead middle rigger was only picking fish up on the north troll so I dropped it down on the south troll and popped it free when I went over a baitpod jigging reeling it back to the boat….bam 19†brown…………. Picked a 17†bow up later got it back in the water after a quick tape check pretty skinny…….. It was a fun time out there I had taped up 4 spoons and three of them took fish one hooked up three time….. big brown was on a store bought spoon ….can’t have it all I guess LOL/././………………….

I have bases Mike but they changed them to a NEW POS design ,  if I can tap the broken bolt out I can jerry-rig it to work till the parts show up if not I'll remove the base and replace with the old style mag 10 and put one of my spares on..........Thanks a ton thinking about helping makes me feel guilty doing all this fishing while you have to work man............... OK I'm over it .....

That ol sod buster trick has saved me a few times from getting skunked. But the true style is to just jig it no reeling.. Good job Ed.and thanks for the report.
