Fished both days for the HCC club tournament. Saturday we fished lake trout due north in 105 to 135 FOW. Picked up alot of nice trout in the 10-15 lb range. We did not catch any silver fish but some were caught in the area by other boats. Sunday we decided to go way offshore to do something we never had before. We fished 180 - 220 FOW and had a great bite going all day of coho's, steelhead, lakers, and a small king

I had a 5 color with an orange spoon out for steelhead and the lake trout kept hammering it - go figure lol.

Baits down 30-50 feet took the bulk of our silver fish. We did take one coho down deep off a rigger - maybe down 120 or so.
