Fishing's been good for me!
I caught a couple really nice 4-5 pound salmon on Friday late PM (weighed on an el cheapo spring driven fish scale), a couple more on Saturday morning and 3 more on Sunday morning. With one exception, they were remarkably good sized -- I'm more accustomed to catching salmon that are only 2 to 2-1/2 pounds.
Found they were biting at 15 to 25 feet -- had 2 colors of lead core out on 1 rod and my downrigger set between 15 and 25 feet. Maine Guide DB Smelt was the most productive lure for me all 3 days.
I for one am glad they're taking the pressure off the lake this year by cancelling the Winni Derby. Hoping to see better catches all season long!
