41st B-Day out of Converse on Old Boat - May 7

[Hugues]

My boat is not new like Ken but it surely put us over fishes today.

What a great day on the lake! We launch out of Converse at 6:00am, went a little bit south. We were all alone in the bay... We find the hot water, around 53* and put two lines on the boards with green Yozuri pin minnow (surface), one line with two colors of leadcore with a purple Yozuri and one line on the DR 12 feet down 80 feet behind the ball with a copper and orange Stinger spoon. Speed at 2.5 mph.

I never had the chance to put all the lines in the water and sit down until 7:30... The salmons were biting everything we put in the water at all depth. When other boats arrived in Farm Town Bay we already had 12 salmons on our lines. After that rush it was more sporadic but regular with two doubles. At noon we were 12/17 with silver and decided to go for lakers in front of Thompson before leaving. We put two riggers with sutton spoon at 80 feet over 200 feet of water and 3 nice lakers added icing on the cake for that fantastic journey!

Ciao

Hugues, looks like the fish gods were on your side today.
You really hit them.

Happy birthday Hugues. It sounds like one you'll remeber forever.

Buy yourself a new boat on your 51st.
