--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We started strong with 2 for 3 by 6:30am on Saturday but as soon as the sun came up and the traffic arrived the fish all but disapeared and the rest clamped their mouths shut. Sunday was a little rough at first but we got out before light anyway. Nothing by 7:15 AM and we decided to troll in and go for breakfast when a dipsey fired. It was Admirals day aboard the Popeye and Toni took the first, a nice mid 20's king. We turned around and a rigger fired with a steelhead for Admiral Ellen (Trophynuts). Well the breakfast idea went out the window as we doubled up on a Coho and another steelie after that. Had another steelie on a spoon after that which spit the hook 20' behind the boat. 4 for 5 in 40 minutes. We worked the area some more and were 5 for 7 by 9:30am. The bite died after that so back to the breakfast plan. 1 king, 2 coho, 2 steelies. dropped a king and a steelie. Bites were 65-80 down on riggers and 230 2.5 setting on the dipsey. White E-chip w/ A-Tom-mik blue hammer, Mtn. Dew chip w/ A-Tom-Mik TG, Blue bubble SD w/ A-Tom-Mik Powder Blue. Savant Green Alwife, and a purple frog did the damage. 80-100 feet of water worked for us. The kings we are getting are still silver and with the cohos just showing up, I'd say we have another month to go.
