Thanks for the tips Capt Dave!
From what it sounds like, your pretty much targeting them based on optimal water conditions I.E. water temp and migration. It sounds like they make thier run with the Kings. Kings like that 70-75 degree water temp. Maybe a little cooler, like 68.
Have you ever used a "fish finder" rig? It's very similar to the rig i've posted below, but a little different. OK, for starters, where this illustration is showing the hook being attached, you actually attach the lead. Cast out the lead attached to the main line. Where the swivel is on the rig, attach a 24" leader with your circle hook on the other end. It allows the bait fish to swim up and down the main line, through the entire water column. When a fish hits, it runs down to the lead, the swivel catches it, and fish on. [cool]
