Late start early finish today lol left the piers just about 715 and dropped 4 J plugs 2 down a few ft 2 flat lined did a couple passes and pointed north. Started switching stuff up to run deep and a flat line screamed away king hooked but after 5 min he let himself go. Worked 77 fow straight out great picture on bottom no takers though never marked a fish inside of 70 ft. Think the wind this wk scrambled things a bit. All in all fun time and left to beat the crummy weather. I even found a white baha with a blue stripe to follow but it just wasn't the same lol.
Was up pickin apples with my friends family. Stopped in Lewiston. Saw some salmon at the cleaning station that came from devils hole.
If ya like lake o pier and tributary fishing, go now the runs are in swing only to get better. This cold rain did the magic and pulled them in.
Lineman run big sticks, j plugs ,spin DRs right in close now start just before light in 10 fow like 2ft down on riggers just arc rods and flat lines 75ft plus back and plainers with 50ft leads off boards. As sun goes up and traffic increases work out deeper you'll know when to move because you'll find yourself getting lonely lol. As for colors black, green, firetiger, silver and bloody nose. Speed 2.5 to 3 mph in close i'll maybe be out pm tomorrow or sun am at the oak ch 80 .
Thanks for the info. , don't think I'll make it up this week end, maybe during the week.
Well went out at the oak last evening, the bite was hot 8 hits 2 hrs all on J plugs but had 5 break aways and 3 spit hook to be expected though i only ran 15lb big game. We were right out front 15 to 18 fow running 100 back and 7 to 10 ft down off balls. Should've had 20 pound line but oh well no complaints here.
Pretty good #'s, need heavier line as do I for those salmons! I guess when I did evenings I went too deep! Maybe I'll have better luck next time I get up there maybe this week.
Lineman get to the oak fish shallow from walls to 30 fow j plugs and big sticks 2.5 to 3 mph you'll be rewarded this week will be hot italready is. The last 2 days great there
