Started out right on the line in 70` and turned back on some marks I went over on the way out to no avail. We were off to a slow start but not like the one on Wednesday. Our first hit came on a black flie 50` behind a board when we reached the 90` mark, not long after a Silver Streak "Mongoose" down 32` took another coho. I took a southerly troll to stay at that depth and the same board went again as I turned, putting the third in the box. Another board went allowing us to watch the fish spit the hook and swim away just as I was about to dip the net
. It went after a purple/blue/black peanut flie 40` behind a board.
The only real pattern I was noticing was the dark flies on the boards were taking hits. I switched out 2 more boards to darker colors and they too had some action
. Circling around and staying in the same general area of 70`-90` we had good results on the coho until the winds started picking up. I then pointed it East towards 140`and dropped a few `riggers deep, 92` and 76`. One had the Silver Streak "Smurf" the other a "Green Dolphin", they took three kings in the 5-8 pound range. A mirage flie behind smoke down 35` took 3 hits in that depth as well. We needed two more for their three man limit as the 5 hour trip was nearing an end, they decided to stay out for another hour and it took us all of it to get the last two
. We went 15 for 20 with 11 coho, 4 kings and a 7 pound steelie. All in all it was a great day, no flies
, with decent fish, and action. No complaints here
