Lake Sammamish was not hot but produced through out the day. No particular lure or color used. Blue/Silver God's tooth and Yakima Bait Company rainbow Spin-N-Glow produced the most consistently. All but one was caught north of the weather buoy. Fish ranged between 15" - 18.5" and were full of salmon smolts. Fishing with down riggers in 27 - 30 foot of water with a 80 foot setback. Speed approximately 1.6 - 1.8 mph. Water temperature around 60 degrees. When barometric pressure started to fall they began to get lock jaw except for one that was extremely fat that made me do a double take to make sure it wasn't a king salmon. No black mouth so in the cooler it went. Even with the cloudy weather and breeze it was a beautiful day to be out on the lake.

Nice you made it out Janet! I need to test that blue/silver God's tooth next time out since they seem to munching on smolts. The rainbow trout colored one work for us last Sunday! Hope to see you guys out there someday soon!

The 50/50 also works well. Got a perch one I am going to try out this summer. See you on the lake. =)

Either a blue/silver or 50/50 are always in the water at Sammamish. =)

Nice catch! I might need to add some blues and 50/50 to the collection.
