 Always run a few lines with spoons  the top 30 ft  usualy a lead core  3-5 colour and a dipsie out 87-99  on a 3 for me .. sometimes it saves the day with bows and cohos.   

 

2.2-2.9  mph on GPS usualy will do the trick in the west end. 

 

I usualy run my deepest rigger with a big paddle and fly   2nd rigger is always a mag spoon up about 20 ft from deep rigger  back 100-150 ft 

 

Almost always have a wire dipsie with flasher fly out atleast 175ft sometimes out 300 or so usualy picks up bigest fish of the day.    

If you don't catch a fish in 30 min change something, speed, colors, depth your fishing, then when you catch one feed em what they want.

There's my rambleings for the night.

well rambled. 

 

I have never set a dipsy back more than 225...always afraid I won't be able to trip it and have to fight the dang thing all the way back in!

haha...I run a mono line about 325 feet back with 5 oz of weight in-line...my version of wire. Last time out that sucker got hit and instantly peeled out around 75 feet of line. My buddy and I both looked at each other...oh crap. Thats gonna be a tiring one! Ended up being a 23 lb salmon which made a bunch more runs. Took a good long time to land that one
