Has the run been really strong? What’s changed from the previous year.

…..reports?

Got up to epsom last night around 730, flat calm , gorgeous sunset . 5 wilds 3 hatch , 4 big springs in the next two hours , all on tomics in diff sizes . Went and anchored up for the night . Back out this morning with 5 dozen liveys anchored on our spot in some chop . We’re out of herring within 2.5 hours as the coho bite was off the charts , with some large chinook mixed in , landed some , lost some due to being extremely hot fighters and our light live bait leaders . Finished fishing tomics till 11 and ended up with our 4 keeper springs , handful more hatch coho and a few releases on some really nice fish 85cm - 88cm . SLOPPY run home taking it on the beam 90 percent of the run .
