Yep only 4 and 3 come on dipsy 90 back with 3 3/4 silver spoon. tried dodgers & Flys, J Plugs, many different color spoons on down riggers 45 thru 75 down 25 back. Fished 7AM to 3:00 PM till the flies run us off the Lake. Trolling 1.8 to 2.8 speed. Im open for any suggestions or helpful hints.

lkdeer- just my 2 cents. Is that speed at your dash or on a speed troll? I dont have a speed troll, but try to keep my boat speed from 3.0- 3.4 mph. at the dash- this should put my lure speed from 2.5-2.9. You also have to factor in the wind direction and currents. I would speed up some if this is your dash mph. Also note which rods get strikes when you go into a turn - if outside rods are getting hit, chances are your going to slow - time to kick it up a bit. I think the lure speed is one of the most important factors, that often gets overlooked. Hope this helps- Nick.

20 May
Dodger and Fly combo was hot for use till 11am..then shut down. we were 5 for 9 in 60 foot of water..Alot of fish marked were 17-22 feet down. All fish were coho with 2-3 bait fish in them. There was a school of bait fish..20-40 foot down solid...and the cool part was watching the other fish follow them..We just did figure 8's around them..dispsie 60 foot bac set on two was good and rigger set at 45 foot with a slider was good to!
