gotng out Sunday afternoon, looks like it might calm down.
We fished Grande this evening for a few hours. 2 wild coho gaff released and one approx 16 pound chinook gaff released. Lost one and no idea what it was, I’m guessing a wild coho. On a white flash fly and a white hootchie at 70 feet in 200 feet of water. Weeds were in the shallower water. Absolutely beautiful evening. We will be on the hunt for the elusive hatch coho tomorrow morning!
Got our limit of hatch in 2 Hours this morning. Released 4 wilds and long line released several others. Was pretty rough out there so fishing south was much better. No chinook that we identified, we could have lost one or two chinook but I’m guessing the ones we lost were also coho. One double header which was pretty chaotic in the swells. Great fun!

What seemed to be the best depths?
Went out this evening for a couple hours and it seemed quite slow. Fished Out deep off the fingers with the crazy amount of other boats.

120-150. Glow needlefish hootchie with a Mylar insert and a 4 inch chrome/chartreuse stripe coyote spoon for the better quality cohos. In the deeper water where the boats were.
Maybe fishing the low slack tide helped

Thanks for that. I was trying shallower in the rigger.
Was a beautiful evening for dinner on the boat.
Hit a couple nice springs today at the fingers. I was using plugs. Hits on a green herring style plug and a white plug.
Managed to lose my favourite plug trying to release one without taking it out of the water. Hit my dummy flasher on the cannon ball and cut my leader.

Was the pin pulled?
Nope. It was intact so it shouldve floated. The spring took off like a bullet and the hook stayed in while it dove away...
what type of rod/reel set up do you run been looking to get more into jiggying for salmon.

Two hatchery coho today let some small springs go and couple wild coho. Home security and Irish cream. Also a few on the white ghost.
First time out with downriggers serviced at HC. One side counter not working. Other side the break was to loose. $50 down the drain, I guess.
Counters seem to be crappy on the newer riggers.
Hard to fish properly when you aren't sure what depth you are at.

You get back more than 50% of them when you pull the pins
