Went out Wednesday night w/my dad, son and his girlfriend, looking forward to a nice night with forecasted "less than 1' waves" only to be greeted by 3'+ with more than a few 4+' rollers thrown in Fishing was tough too, managed only a king on a Hot Lobster meat rig down 80' (rigger) in 95 fow' at sunset.. 13lbs Looking for redemption Thursday night with a buddy, went 3/3: Shaker Coho 50 down on rigger, carmel dolphin SS in 120' fow ~ released to grow up. King 10# Meat Rig w/blue bubble spin dr. 130 back on wire diver 95' fow King 14# Meat Rig Hot Lobster w/white e-chip flasher down 60'(rigger) in 90' fow Started in 130' moved into 90' fow around 8:00 p.m....many more marks in the 90-100 range for us than deeper.

Great trip, plus you got to sleep in !

Nice rig Kevin! I think I've seen it in GH. What size kicker is do you have? I've got the same Yamaha 200 ~ great engine, but also considered adding a kicker 4-stroke to my 23' CC Hydra Sports. Scott

Great report and pic's! Healthy looking fish What boat do you fish from? I fish out of GH too, looks similar to mine? Scott

What meat rigs are you using? I've never (knock on wood) had a BW break on me . Scott

Fished 6:30 - 9:30ish...covered 100'-140; fow. Ended up 4/4.. SS Steely Dan on 5-color -- 2-small kings 135' fow Meat Rig Dipsey Blue DW Flasher set at 1 - 100'back, dragged a 5# Laker in Meat Rig Dipsey Green DW Flasher 1- 11# King set at 1 112' back at sunset 125 fow Flat calm night, with no biting flies Lots of boats out, we marked most fish in the top 40'fow, best marks were 115-140 fow.

Fished the mud, marking a good number of fish and bait. North wind made it a bit bumpy and cold (is this really July?). Best water was 30'-40'..finished 3/5. Here's what worked: 5-Color - 5# Steelhead & 15 # King -SS Steely Dan Downrigger 20 down 35 fow Mother of Pearl J-Plug 2-Color - 2 rips within a couple minutes near sunset, bright green older Lyman plug ~line snapped with the king flopping on top about 20' behind the boat ~ looked to be in the 12-15# range All landed fish came on a South troll, the 2 misses north troll Nice to finally get a few

Thanks for the report! I was going to head out tonight, but couldn't find a crew 2- fish is a lot better than the black with white stripe "kitty":D

Nice way to start the year Ken!

Great pic's! Thanks for sharing!!!

Great idea for next year...a "Fishmas" Tree!

Very nice:thumb: Great to see those silver fish !

I did fish just inside Muskegon lake where the channel meets the lake on Friday morning and we got 4 salmon while jigging. Saw lots of boats trolling the channel and just outside but not sure how they did.

Who said there's no honest fishermen? I had a 0/0 trip a couple of weeks ago...can't remember the last time that happened!!

Set lines a little after 6:00 p.m. in 85 fow on a SW troll. Ended a disappointing 2/2 Both came on BW blue meat rig. 1- Came "around" 100' back in 110 fow as I was letting it creep out..nice 13# king ~ had high hopes for the evening as it was the 3rd rod I was putting out 1- same rig 140 back around 8:30.-- 8# king didn't mark many fish, think I should've started north of the pier a ways and trolled with the waves...rougher than I thought it was fished 85'-150'

Thanks for the report! I'm hoping to get out tomorrow out of GH too! Tried Tues night, got out there, and too rough for the crew Report was for 1' or less ~ they must've meant in the channel! Good luck!

Thanks for the report! What was the 'best' depth?
