We decided to attempt catching all five species: Steelhead, King Salmon, Coho Salmon, Brown Trout, so the fishing began deep (100-120 feet) using large dodgers and green flies right on the bottom. Within a half an hour there was a "deer in the headlight look" on deck. " (six fish weighed total of 120 Pounds) I changed everything to spoons and pulled my lines up from 40 feet down to 60 feet and moved at 3.0 knots S.O.G. Instantly we had a double that was Lake Trout! Crazy fish were not acting like Trout. From 75 feet of water to 70 we had both ten core leads screaming out and two down-riggers. In less than half an hour we had 8 real nice Steelhead! We trolled into shallow water (55- 46 feet) trying for Cohos, Kings, and a Brown. Lost several large Kings before time and cooler space were gone.
