My son Darius and I were able to get out to Lk Wa. this past Saturday with some success. We started fishing at around 11am and finished at 2:30 pm . Not a long trip but a fun one. Fished the south end of the lake (Cedar River) near the Boeing plant, between 15 and 25 ft. on the downriggers was where the action seemed to be, pulling orange label cut-plug herring about 100 ft. behind the boat(very important). Hooked into 3 nice cutthroat, got 2 on the boat. Very nice change of pace from the salmon we have been chasing in the salt. I wsh I knew how to upload pictures. HAPPY HOLIDAYS to all !!!!

We were able to get out and do some fishing in the salt the last couple of days. Area 8-2 has been putting out some fish for us, not all clipped but still fun. We have been fishing the south side of Hat Island in 140-170 ft. Thats where we have been marking the most bait on the HDS-10. Raking the bottom with a Red Racer flasher and a Coho Killer has been the ticket. Also get the kicker in and out of gear once in a while, the speed change seems to get them interested. This morning we hooked into a 12 lb keeper and a 14 lb native. Have fun, stay safe and MERRY CHRISTMAS Derek Sledzinski "KING ME"
