Fish were so shallow yesterday I ever marked a single one. I was running the downriggers at 10’ and got a few fish but the long lines were still way outfishing the downriggers, I believe due to the longer set backs. We did really well right in the middle of the bay in front of the freeman...

I’ve notice more bites with fast speeds this year too!

Yeah that’s the ones I was thinking of, haven’t bought them in a long time, should have confirmed the name!

Let me know how you do!

Flex lights are like ford fenders but plastic wings, usually find them in the same area at the tackle store, they produce a little less drag. I like mikes UV shrimp scent, same stuff I use for steelhead.

I’ve been fishing 1.0 to 1.7 mph, I try to keep it changing all the time.

Well I count pulls, usually starting at 25 and working up to 40. On a typical steelhead rod I’d say that’s 50’ to 80’ of line out. I’ve been using 3/4 oz. and 1 oz. weights. Also been using ford fenders and flex lights. They’ve been out fishing dodgers at least 6-1 for me this year...

No problem, they’ve been so shallow I haven’t even been using the downriggers. Forgot to mention I’ve been marking fish from 10-15’ deep on the sonar too.

I’ve fished from the dam to the elk river arm over the last few weeks and caught fish everywhere I’ve fished in good numbers. If your finding the fishing slow your probably fishing too deep. We’ve been catching all our fish 10-12’ down.
