Headed out of Shilshole at around 4:30AM in a light rain, some chop. Line in the water right around 5AM off Jeff Head area. I trolled around with a herring aid spoon behind a red racer flasher until around 6:20 fishing in 100-200 FOW and anywhere from 80 to 180 feet on the wire, but no love. Decided to switch it up and traded out the rig for a gibbs "no bananas" flasher with a "watermelon" coho killer. Started to send the rig down on the downrigger and around 100 feet down I popped off the clip, a real bummer because I'm using manual downriggers and a 16lb ball so hauling the ball back up is no treat. Just as I'm about to curse myself for setting up the clip poorly the rod started pulsing and I had a fish on! A few minutes later I had a barely legal (23 inch) hatchery chinook in the boat.
Trolled the area with that same rig for some time before heading north (still trolling) and eventually turning around in front of Kingston at slack tide, the trolling back South. Decided to troll directly over my mark where I had picked up the chinook and... another fish on, this time a fairly small 2lb resident coho. Having filled my dance card I headed back home.
Cleaned the fish at home to find nothing at all in the coho's stomach, very small 1.5-2 inch bait in the chinook's stomach. Returned to the same spots saturday and sunday and picked up one more coho but no more chinook, looking at the creel report (and at the size of my chinook) I think the ocean fish just haven't pushed down into 10 quite yet, hopefully we'll be seeing them down here soon.
Tight lines all!
