Arrived at Glory Hole at 545 am...launched the boat and then met up with TragedySpring around 6.

Headed out towards the spillway. I scored first blood with a nice koke about 30 ft OTW. Then TragedySpring lost one at 33'. Twenty minutes later he got hit on the stacked rod at 23'....it was a trout that self released right at the back of the boat...GF= 1 - Tragedy=0 ..... Then we trolled past Rose Island, no hits at all. We decided to pick it up around 8 and make a move upriver. That was that a good decision as after we got reset we started putting them in the boat, slowly at first, but we began to get dialed in and started catching, and losing them. We probably lost a limit today, and when I say we, really mean TragedySpringnananana. The wind blew us close to shore, and i scored a nice 2-3 lb Brown trout on her koke rod. It pulled the line out of the clip and I knew it wasnt a koke.

We also scored on two nice holdover rainbows that went 2-3 lbs as well on the koke gear. All together we got a mixed bag of limits- 7 kokes to 15'', 1 Brown,and 2 Nice holdover rainbows. The rainbows put up good fights cause they both had a full tail :shock:
Garlic corn worked best, followed by herring oil corn.

Best lures were anything pink..hoochies, spinners behind pink dodgers.

Best depth was 25-30 early and 30-42 later, and about 20 ft deep for the trout, besides the brown which was caught trolling near the bottom
