make sure you run at least a 50ft. fluorocarbon leader (i prefer 6 lb test) on your lead core rigs. flies were hot for us yesterday at 5 colors, riggers have had the most action at around 22-28 ft down, so right around the 25 ft mark right now.
yesterday we kept 2 20" fat salmon for the smoker. we lost 3 more keeper sized fish that were estimated to be around the 19" size range, with one that was well beyond that. i'd say that one was around 6 lbs and in the upper 20's in length. i had it halfway in the net when the hook pulled out and off he went..
