Escape Shakedown 6/5/22 - Sandy Creek

[GAMBLER]

Fished on the new boat for the first time yesterday.  Found a good screen in 180-210.  Worked that water from 6:30 - 10am and we ended up 9-11 on kings with one steelhead in the mix.  45-100 down was the most consistent water.  Mostly a spoon bite.  Flasher/Fly only took one fish all morning.

Awesome where were you fishing out of?

What, no green fish Brian??  It can’t be a true shakedown for the Escape until you target Lakers.

No need when the kings cooperate!  We also try to go by this rule: No derby, no laker fishing.  Can't educate them!

Gotta have rod holders to move rods out of the way when a king gets to the boat!
