We were on the water around 6am. It was cloudy and a breeze was blowing which made it chilly. The water temperature was 70 degrees.

Fishing was good but catching was slow between the 3 of us. My brother Richard, sister-in-law Kim (pinkpole) and I brought in 4 trout. We did have several bites that didn’t stick.

I was fishing off the downriggers, stacked, anywhere from 20-40 feet. Stacking was 10 foot apart. Kim was 16-20 feet, not stacking, and my brother was longlining on the surface with a Pistol Pete fly.

Not a lot of on top action but there is always coming home to watch the footage of what happened under water. Now I see why I was getting tangled. Just goes to show that I wasn't paying attention when letting out my line. I usually have the lower rods line out further than the top. I remember part of the time I didn’t load the rod as much as I usually do.

Thanks for the report and video. I was out there last Tuesday with my grandson and we had a few bites and lost a nice one trolling in.
The fishing seems to be slower than it was last season. I don't know why the limit was changed to 10?. I like your camera it gives you a lot

Great video. Seems like the kokes are getting picky or just not wanting to play. Love seeing the slow mo of the koke swimming by. Well done.

I want to say something about Toni. It might not be the best place to say but has to be said still. I order from her at least twice a year. She is the ONLY person who send you your CHANGE from your orders shipping. How honest is that. What a great person. Thank you Toni. That few cents makes me smile every time. Oh ya, they work great too. LOL
