We were able to head out for our annual Thanksgiving overnight trip. We had the camper and boat loaded and headed out Saturday morning. Met up with a friend from church and I jumped in his boat while my two brothers and one of their brother-in-law fished in the other boat. I fished the mouth of the Spokane on the south side and my brothers boat headed down to Seven Bays and Hawk Creek areas. Both boats caught their limit and we ended up keeping 13. My mom always enjoys a few fish and I needed some fish for the smoker, everyone else was full for fish so no need to keep them all.

Fish were all caught using Kekeda flies. Our boat was using orange and the other boat pink. Both colors caught fish equally well. We were down 12 to 18 feet on the downriggers with the usual trolling speed of 2.0 to 2.4. We had many of the usual 14 to 15 inch fish and ended up with 6 of the 13 being a little bit bigger. The fish pictured was a beautiful 19" native. Had three more that were 19". We had a really good time fishing.
