Finally found a couple kings - G managed to show me up by landing his - my first about 15 minutes later gave me a choice - spool or horse - so I ponied up, he bucked a few times and spat the hook. Heartbreak The next hit just as I was changing up; by the time I reached for the rod, gone; then another as I was readying to drain a coffee - hit so hard broke off the 40lb test - then proceeded to porpoise behind us twice as if to say, nyeah, nyeah, nyeah.
G's was too tired to revive so smoker city she is,
37 inches and 23 lbs - exact match for his PB from 2012.
Bite slowed down and the boat traffic picked up so we headed West to one of my spots and hit 6 lakers in 20 minutes. Then the sun came out and things slowed down. By then we'd had 6 hours on the water and called her a day
These guys were crazy energetic today
Gotta love holiday Mondays with overcast skies and west winds
