320 out of harbor set up in 75 fow at 6:30am. Fished NW troll and SE troll back and forth over the same water till we quit at 12:30pm. 115-145fow was best for us, caught fish from a 5 color down to 60’ down on a rigger with 30’-45’ down as the most productive depth. 00 dodgers and small spinnies with 2 inch slider flies did most of the work but got some on spoons and 8” paddle with 4” fly too. No real stand out spoon colors. Ended 20-21 for 27-28. 1 King, 1 Steelhead, 11 Coho and the rest lakers that were released. Had several other nice steelhead that we lost and wrecked some tackle in the process. Not as fast and furious as everyone has been doing but still had a fun day. Good luck!
