Saturday— North/north west wind 5-10 mph 2’ King chop
We began the day in front of the port in 100 fow trolling east. We hit a mature king on the set up and Dave quickly landed the fish and 3 other lines involved in a crossover. By the time we got the lines reset it was 6:30. We then missed a fish on the 400’ copper, the 65’ rigger and the 220’ dipsy. While it sounds like a lot of action it was already 8 am and we felt like we should make a move offshore.
After a quick talk with a captain offshore we headed for the 26.5 line. We set the lines in and began a north troll. Finally a coho hit on the 150’ dipsy with the WMD/moonshine spin fly. We began a circle and the port outrigger snapped and the reel began to scream. The 39” 25 pound king grabbed the Moonshine mirage fly behind a white e-chip on the 300’ copper. This rod proved to be the hot ticket for the day taking three more kings including a 27 pound 40” monster. We kept on circling the area and each time we trolled north over the waypoint another king would hit.
