Just returned from the Big Lake as we brought the boat out to Oswego on Wednesday, got an evening trip in & some on Thursday before heading home late afternoon. Had a new crew from CT who had never fished Lake O or kings before so it took some time to get them trained and proficiant at keeping the rod loaded & boating fish! We went 2 for 6 on Wed night, not the best batting average but put a 15 lb & a 20lbr in the box. Worked the 120 to 140 line west of the Harbor out towards Fair Haven. Wire Dipsies took all the hits with the 20lbr coming on the riggers with a UV Stinger Mag spoon.
OUt at 6:00 on Thursday morning, went to our same way points to find the bait still there & the KIngs not far behind! First pass & the Dipsie takes a rip...20 min later & my guy has his first King in the boat...21lbs! Pass over three more times...3 more rips we loose two & land 1. another over 20. Bite slowed so we slid out to 200...blank screen. We were the only boat around as all the other charters had headed out to the abiss & 500 ft OW.
Worked back in to try our way points again & get a nice 23 lbr to fire on yet another dipsie. This time one of the guys lands one after dropping 3! (took him a while to get the hang of things) Last pass produces a laker as we slid in abit shallower before heading in. Ended up 4 for 8 before off the water at 2:00. Dipsies out 240 to 310...riggers 75 to 95.
Here is a few pics...
Nice fish from Wed evening
Finally after 3 drops scott gets his in!
The crew back at the docks.
Back out there next weekend! On the PH with MadSierra today & he has had a steady pick...reports to follow.
