While nowadays the cell phone camera might be the easiest way to capture the moment worth sharing,  Sometimes there is not the time nor available persons to capture a single frame let alone some video. 
  This post is for entertainment purposes only. not anything else..
So its going to be some still frames only,  As the Boss has said to you before sorta if there is no pictures it didn't happen,.....

a happy fella using the moocher to coax a whopper king to the net.

Here is my favorite netman with his cold weather spring king.

Trolling the shoreline can produce feeder Kings,  with a diver, and a whole herring,  Simple. and sometimes productive.

Here in puget sound its all downrigger fishing for kings, and a long light action whip is a must, cause lots of 6-10" shakers, and a medium or heavy action rod wont let you know theres a shaker on the hook

That's it, I'm buying a mooching set up!

 Is the whip. n funny lookin reel necessary just to catch a darn salmon???
    I kinda agree with the feeling you get when you troll in good water, everything's rite as you can do and after a long time you decide to check your gear..... So you wonder how long youve been pulling a juvenile salmon or rockfish with its mouth open ??.... Its a trollers Delima....  actually fun time on the water is kinda expensive and most anglers might try to find a way to be more successful.   We might spend more money on gear, but technique  is sometimes to relate to , oar explain.
   here is the start to what we do here,  one way only.  this is not a whip, as im pulling a Deep Six diver trolling the shallows along the shoreline during our open winter king season,  Later we use downriggers and go deeper in the haunt.....

Sometimes there is a lot of waiting, trolling is too boring some of my friends say,  Butt what a way to while away your day, doing what you like to do?   To each their own,  Is it worth the wait?
