Nice coho for everyone. What are your best producing lures and deeps out there. I only made it out one day this coho season but it was a epic year by anyone's accounts.
 
changes day to day for us. we fish cq 20-30 days a year. for coho we got them from 20'-120', some day spoons other days hoochies. we start each day running different gear at diff. depth and make many adjustments until we start getting bit, then we change it all over to said set up/depth. and keep it that way till it goes cold then change it back up.

this year most fish were 50-60' but it was impressive how one day they loved the squid and couldn't buy a spoon bit. then the next day opposite. I quite fishing bait for salmon 4 or so years ago.
 
Very nice! Looks like you're putting that boat to good use! I like that.

Our go-to lure in PA this year was a coho killer in cookies & cream and also purple haze. Both on a 24" leader behind 11" purple haze flasher. I was a great summer.

Really enjoyed seeing your boat progression and the fishing. How do you like the Lowrance fish finder ? I might change out my Raymarine one day.
 
the hds-8 I love it and although I hear bad stuff about lowrance they are all I have ever used and I have not one bad thing to say. However i have never had to deal with there customer support either. Everything for me has worked great right out of the box so far. the hds-5 I hardly even turn on anymore it is more for back up gps right now, and will run my radar when it gets added later this winter.
thanks I should be better about posting updates to the boat then I have been.

also PA was great for us too up until the last week of october. it was deff. a hardwear show in there for us as well.
 
Nice fish Jake, glad to see someone had a good coho season. We fished the Douglas Channel (British Columbia) in early Sept and coho fishing was very slow this year, plus Fisheries closed the Halibut season when we were up there.

sorry to hear you guys had a rough season. and I hear you on no halibut in the freezer this is the first year in many we are without it. missed the butt and king season due to getting boat up and going... this year we will make up for lost time:)
 
Now that looks like a great day fishing for Cohos with friends.
You have me anxious for next summer.
Thank you for sharing your pictures.
