Fished from 6/7 afternoon till 6/9 evening with Fishrod and Tin Boat, 19 salmon, 2 small browns and 1 laker, went 22 for 27. Want to thank crazy ivan for some guidance of where to find some fish, as the lake has changed since my last visit 2 week ago. The bait has moved around and the water temperature in the water column has gotten warmer to depths of +60 ft. Found quality fish hanging around plumes of bait fishing mostly 30 to 50’ on the downriggers with 15’+ leads and 6 and 7 color of lead. Everybody landed a 5+ lb salmon, with many 3 and 4 lb in between. Talked (shouted from dock to dock) to salmoneye for a few minutes, he mentioned the 5 lb brown that CI got, nice fish.

The most productive lures:
Green grave digger
Money (2009 LCI winner)
Rainbow
Dodger with Green Hex

Bud’s 5.25 lb Salmon





Gus’ 5.25 lb Salmon





Richard’s 5+ lb Salmon, 23”



Green Grave Digger was the hottest lure



RD Frog patterned after reeldeal’s painted frog lure, it works great



Top Gun Money Lure




Find the bait and you will find the salmon

Way to go. I knew you would find a pattern that would produce.Sometime's you have to work a bit harder to find it. Nice post and thanks for the look.

Mark.

Always a pleasure to fish on the Gray Ghost. Thanks for another great trip Gus. Bud looks and should be proud of his 5 lb + salmon.

Thank you Grey Ghost and Fishrod for a great trip.It is a real treat to watch two super fishermen zero in on the fish,and on their own taped lures,in many cases.

Great job guys. Way to "dial" them in.
