Re: winter kings
January is a tough month for winter trolling. You can check the ADFG Troll website http://www.cf.adfg.state.ak.us/region1/ ... t_comp.php for the historical records. I trolled quite a bit last January. Some skunks and ones. It usually gets better in March. But, every winter, every month, every week is unique. You never know.
Heading out in a few minutes. Goal: 1 king in December.

Skunked on last trip. Almost lost whole line with float bag. December kinging can be marginal.

Float bag? Where's those bow poles?
Re: winter kings
Not fishing bow poles when dragging 50 plus fathoms.

Ah. I wasn't taking a swipe at you Salty, I was just curious. That's what the smiley face was supposed to convey.
Re: winter kings
No problem. Good question since I like them so much.
