Monday 5/19:  Fished 80 - 110 and back to 90 and pulled a small laker and small steelhead.  I picked up lines and ran to the abyss and re-set.  At 355 feet and trolling towards shore.   Not a bite until the 205 range and then between 205 and 185 pulled two undersize lakers and a keeper and two twinkie kings.  Every laker came on a spin n glow off cowbells ticking bottom.  the steelie took a double orange crush on gold prototype on the three color.  The kings came on blueberry glow (19) and Blue Mahi (82) set deep on the riggers.   finished 7/7 with two being throw backs

5/20:   Started out in the mud after marking lots of bait in the channel by the submarine.  The dredger was working and there wasnt as much bait in the outer arms.  We set up shop and pulled one fish on each of the first three loops inside the mud.  All lakers. First fish was on Green berry glow (18) off the rigger set as the stacker 10' above the ball.  next was on a Slide Diver Lite bite set back 65' with a green/ yellow prototype.  Then another prototype (Natural born hornet) took one on the rigger 10' off the bottom.  then we took one ticking bottom with the spin n glow off cowbells, and also missed another one on a slide diver with yellow candy corn glow (37) set back 80'.  After a loop without a bite we pulled lines and ran to 150 and set up shop on a SE troll.  We missed a bite on the spin n glow and then took another laker on an E chip Green/ Glow (special captain Gary's color) trailed by a dark seaweed horsefly ticking bottom in 116', on the wire diver.  Finished 5/7 with all lakers in the 5-9# range.
