Saturday Bill was going to be fishing on his boat with a friend so we were joined by my cousin Kevin. We setup up just south of Thompsons in 3 to 4fters, this could be a long day and as the mornin progressed it was we went 1 for 5, it was one and done before we could even get to the rods, sort strikes on the cheaters Then around noon we were cleaning lines, we were picking up seaweed especially on the mini divers was even thinking about pulling them but decided to set them back up. Put a Fathead sppon on the starboard mini diver and sent it back out, about 10 minutes go by and doesn't that rod with the mini diver with the Fathead spoon just start throbbing and the fsih coming out of the water way back. Brian gets to the rod and the fish comes out a couple more times, we can see it's a nice fish so we get the lines cleared and Kevin gets the net under the fish and in the boat, very nice fish. We measured about 7lbs on our scale so off the the weight station we. What a nice bumpy ride in 4fters to the weight station, official weight 6lbs 13ozs 26" long go for 4th place, this really puts us in a good mood after a slow morning. We get set back up and for the rest of the afternoon continue to pick up salmon with a few lakers thrown in the mix. Best lures for us were the Purple Demon followed by the Fathead, Fat Buzzy and Sausage Grazy.
Sunday we decide to go after lakers to see if we could match anything up with the salmon for the team competition, we managed a few but the biggest was only 10lbs.
Then I get a call from Crazy Ivan, they are headed for the weight station with a nice fish so I wait for the call back with the details. 7lbs 12ozs good for 3rd place, thanks alot ole buddy, pal, business partner for dropping us down to 5th, LOL Alls good though, Crazy Ivan Lure team takes 2 out of the top 5 places. Also congrats to Mike (LazyC's) and crew for a well deserved 2nd place finish.
