Holy cow, Jerry...!.. You guys HAMMERED 'em..Nice catch... Congrats..

I'll bet those pilgrims were tickled with that mess of fish.. Looks like you got at least 5 kings..

They are all fun, though..Those cohos and steelies fight like crazy.

I can't believe how CALM it is..You don't get too many days on the Big Lake like that...

Hammered them - yes! What a day we had. 5 guys / 23 hooked / 13 boated. Largest caught was 32#'s... lost one that would probably go around 40 (so the Captain told me) I got it to 38' from the boat only to have him say, "Good-bye!" What a fight - 28 minutes of fun, fun, fun.

All fish caught were Kings - except 1 Coho and 1 Steelhead.

We were fishing about 2 - 3 miles out of Irondiquoit (sp?) in about 120' of water. Most of the fish were hooked in 50' to 80' feet of water. The majority of them were caught on rods hooked to downriggers and a little 4" round disc. The Captain kept refering to a lure called "Dirty White Boy". All were caught on silver hammered-backed spoons.

The water was TOO CALM! The temp was about 87* and I kept putting on my Equate 50SPF Sport Sunscreen every half-hour. I also had that wide-brimmed hat (as suggested by my Dermetologist the day before... ). I'm sure glad I did... that sun was brutal - the Amish guys didn't use sunscreen and on Saturday they were beet red and sore!

Hope that helps guys!

If you ever want to go out on a charter - hook up with Sam... he's awesome!
