  7/18 Met Nick at the launch at 3 for alittle prefishing.  We headed out to our way points from the week before around 130'.  We set out 3 riggers pulling spoons 2 dipseys pulling ff and a 300 copper pulling meat.  We worked that area for about a hour without moving a rod despite the screens being good.  We decided to pull the lines and go check the deep water.  We sat down in about 300' and proceeded put the same spread out.  We worked out to 400' then back in without moving a rod and by this time it was after 6 and we wanted to go back and work that 130' area again thinking maybe the fish would hit in the lower light of the afternoon so we started pulling rods.  We had all the rods in the boat except for 1 dipsey when it started screaming 10 mins later we boated a nice 22# king.  With that we knew if we spent sometime out there we could find some more.  We went back inside and worked the area of good screens and still couldnt move a rod.  We were back at the launch by 8 with a game plan for the morning.

  7/19 tournament time!  We headed straight out of the chute put down in 60' put out all 4 riggers 2 with sliders 2 wires pulling ff a 300 copper pulling meat and a 500 copper pulling meat.  We took a good shot on a slider but was gone by the time we got it out of the rod holder.  We worked out to 150' trying to get something else to go but to no evail so we quickly pulled rods and made the desicion to go deep for the rest of the day. We sat down in 300' and proceded to put out the same spread but put sliders on all 4 riggers cause we knew there was a good class of steehead out there.  We didnt move a rod for about 45mins then 1 of the riggers starts screaming with a 16# king after short battle into the box he went.  We set the rigger back up and took a shot on the dipsey we dropped it half way back to the boat so back out the dipsey went.  We changed all the spoons to uv colors and that seemed to do the trick.  We took a 7# steelhead almost immediately and then a smaller 5# king after that, then the black cloud started hovering over the boat as we would drop 4 majors in the next 3 hours and all of them absolute screamers!  We dropped them off of both coppers the dispeys and 1 off the riggers not sure why just one of those things i guess. We finished the day 4 for 14 absolutley horrible ratio! I hope we can get rid of the black cloud for the sandy slam
