my last time out about a week ago i gave up releasing pinks trying to get a coho and just bonked 4 of em and came home haha
Post by: Stein on August 31, 2023, 04:01:16 PM
Someone just has to figure out how to get elk and coho to not do their thing at the same time, it kills me to put the boat away for a week right in the middle of the peak.
Dang, just looked at the weather and it really took a turn for the worse, especially Sunday. Hopefully they are wrong..

I think we'll be fishing Friday - Monday, different crew each day. Sounds like the coho could be as stellar as the pinks.thats why i hunt muzzle loader :chuckle:

I finally caught something on the goofy, fake cut plug with the bait compartment in it.

Quick limit this morning. Not big but they are Coho.we run the brads baits and twisters all the time and we kill on them. Last weekend down at buoy 10 that's pretty much the only thing you would see on the guide boats and we were killing the kings and coho

What do put in them? I just stuck in a herring strip.

I mix up canned tuna, canned herring, bloody tuna oil and other scents I have laying around. It makes a big mess unless you are really careful which I'm usually not.

Canned tuna in oil and mix in your favorite scents with it. Empty the tuna in to a small Tupperware to mix in your scent. I also mash up a sardine or two sometimes and use that since they are soft bodied. I do well on PS cohos with the Brads CP but I don't I don't like the banana shaped one. Nice fish BTW!

damn near verbatim what the guides were doing this weekend. On dads boat we use the sponges and whatever scent you like, but dad was impressed with the canned tuna and bloody tuna scent mix up so we are going to try that in pudget sound now. Troll for an hour or so when you pull up to check you should still see some tuna sticking through the holes if it's less then half of what you put in time to empty it as most the scent is gone at that point and rebait. We consistently got first 10 minute take downs after rebaiting last weekend can't call it a pattern but sure seemed like oneQuick limit this morning.

Headed over to Possession and was in fish right away. Had a hard time finding hatchery fish as 9 of the 13 fish we caught were wilds. 3 of the wilds were around 6-8 pounds. Nothing huge, but decent fish. Easily lost another dozen fish. Good times!

Smart boats fishing the derby will be in 10, much larger fish compared to 9.

I checked our cards in the glove box and my boat kept fish 49 and 50 this morning. I remember years where 10 fish was pretty good fishing.

Unfortunately I'm out this week, so they might all be locked up before I could go again next week.
