Friday (Practice) - Did some looking around (from 100-500+ fow), and ended up finding 7 bites out in front of Fair Haven. All the waypoints were fairly close so we figured there was a school of fish there worthy of our time on Saturday. Our biggest 3 totaled just under 30lbs. Fish werent big, but from the sounds of it we had more bites than most boats. Our hot set up today was a Dreaweaver SS Dave's Salmon Slapper parked at 100' on the rigger. We had two wire bites one took a Green double glow SmartFish pulling an A-TOM-MIK Green krinkle, and the other was a White double glow SmartFish pulling an A-TOM-MIK Ace fly.

Saturday (Day 1) - Well, we let Fridays pre tourney throw us a curve ball. Guys plucked some good fish out of the inside waters (140 fow in front of West 9 mile), so we started our day there hoping for a couple of bug guys. Marks were there but we only ended up taking a laker out of there. With about 3 hours left we made a run to our waypoints from Friday and in no time we were hooked up. Every bite once we set down on our waypoints came off the same rig. Chrome E-Chip pulling and A-TOM-MIK Big Finn fly out 275 on a .5 setting. We boxed 5 fish for a total of 98 points and ended day one in 15th place out of 37 teams.

Sunday (Day 2) - We didnt make any other plans but to run right to our waypoints in front of Fair Haven seeing that the leader took his box from there on day one. We pull up around 6:30 and drop lines. We werent even set-up yet and corner rigger down 100 fires with a short steelie on a copper NBK. Not much longer and the high wire out 350 on a 2 setting starts ripping. We boat a nice 22lb King on a White Double Glow SmartFish pulling an A-TOM-MIK Ace fly. Next the 600 copper takes off with a 8-10lb laker on a Green Double Glow SmartFish pulling an A-TOM-MIK Green Krinkle fly. Get it back out there and it takes off ripping. This time it wasnt a mud chicken! We boat a 21lb King. Middle rigger fires again with a nice 8-10lb steelie only to dump off 25 yards behind the boat. We would then end up boating a 7lb steelie on a NK Mag Froggie cheated above a Mini Spinnie. With about 30 minutes to fish we boat a short steelie and dump another keeper Steelie. We boxed 4 fish for 97 points and ended up just out of the money. Here is a few pics of our big guys from today:
