Headed out little later in the morning.  Left launch around 9:30AM  Headed NW to IL water.   Started to set lines around 73 FOW.   Dropped probe down and was reading cooler water around 60 down so I set out all longer lines.   Couple short rips the first hour, kept switching colors ran one side of boat spoons another flasher fly tried to keep my speed around 2.4 to make both baits work.  NOTHING.    Brought lines up with 100-150 coppers and the action started.   100 coppers being our hot line with green and silver flasher and matching fly, Orange dodger with silver,black,purple fly.   150's with magnum blue and white moonglow spoons, and meat rig on wire diver back 85 all took fish.    Could only get action on a SE troll.  So we made 2-3 passes once we got a game plan together and got out limit.  COHO were all massive as we have been seeing lately which was good to see.
