The derby started off with arrivals about 6 am , three teams
Team SDC
Team Grampa
Team Steelheader
Off we went ,Fished through the am , lots of fish marking all through the water column from 20-70 down ,
,
Turned out to a mix of salmon, lakers and bows, action in the am was steady , all ours on spoons ,various colors and designs at 2-2.5 mph long leads ..
A few hairy moments when hooked fish crossed other line and caused a chinese fire drill , but we were lucky and got them all sorted out ..
Kept in touch with other teams till close to 2 pm when we had to rescue a vessel in distress , alls good ..
Was a great day , weather was awesome , got even a deeper tan and ended up with a very respectable cooler of fish ..
Team SDC had left before we got back but the results of the day were ...
Team SDC ... 1 bow
1 laker
2 salmon
Team Grampa ..
1 laker
1 bow
2 salmon
Team Steelhead
2 lakers
5 salmon
Prize time came .. Team Grampa won 1st with a 14 lb salmon followed by team Steelheader with close second of 13 lb salmon..
Over all standings .. team Grampa ..largest fish
Team Steelheader .. Heaviest combined
All in all great day , perhaps next year LSO can turn this into a derby that will give all members a shot at GB salmon..
Guess who got to filet all 11 fish back in port ..
Great day
Dave
