Hit lake Washington around 1 in the afternoon in hopes of a coho or maybe a cutthroat. Lunches in kenmore and trolled down to Kirkland with nothing and then turned around and started trolling back towards kenmore. Very choppy out so we decided to reel up and head back in. After I popped the rod free from the downrigger clip I started to reel in and about half way to the boat I felt a tug to I set the hook and it was a small salmon. Let it go to get nice and big. Tried trolling hot shots and finished with a green splatter back dick nite. First time trying for the coho but not the last. From the reports I've been reading over the last couple years, the success has come in October so I'll be back!

Coho on Lake Washington can be sooooo finicky. One day... lockjaw... next day hitting everything in front of them. A friend said that they usually are locked up when they hit the lake. However last year was the exception where they were hitting.... and I was happy about it as I've never hooked a coho in fresh water until then.
