Salmon report for the week:
Still catching most of our salmon between 60 and 95 feet,but did get some up as high as 40 early in the mornings
8” Kryptonite,Megatron and Optimus Prime salmon candy flashers caught the majority of our fish the past week running salmon candy No Mercy UV and Glowing Leprechaun flies behind them as well as Brads mini black jack and green magic bait cups filled with tuna and running speed of 1.9-2.2
Seeing more fish staging along some the points leading into the marina and duck creek the last week and fish are starting to turn darker as they get deeper into their spawning stage so some of the full size brighter color Brads baits and spoons should get some fish to take on a reaction strike
Leader lengths on the 8” flashers are still about 20” measured from head of the fly but we shortened up the leader on the 11” flashers to 20” also and picked up some fish on those as well,still running the full length leader on the Brads baits.
