I was pretty hopeful to pull in some fish this morning. After hours and hours of trolling lake washington, days of failed attempts to hook a coho. Launched at Rotary Park. Boat was in the water just after 6am, lines in the water at first light. We pulled plugs, cast and reel #1 dick nite's, floated eggs, tossed some buzz bombs for fun. Not a single bite! I was marking them everywhere, didn't see a single one jump. I did see three seals roaming around rotary park, and as far as 522. I had the same report from the dozen or so fishermen I ran into. I love any day out on the water, I'm pretty happy just playing with gear and fishing. But goddamn, this is getting frustrating. Fishing within these guidelines and poor conditions. I guess it is, what it is. Lake Steven Kokane tomorrow morning to scratch my itch.

Good luck!
