Center consoles are great when it is warm and dry. Now so much when cool, windy or rainy. If you fish the spring, it is always cool on the water, even on warm sunny days because the lake is still cold. I prefer a cuddy cabin for gear and enclosed cockpit at least on 3 sides with an open rear or drop curtain. I'd want 2 corner riggers on a boat that size(if it had a 10 ft beam or bigger, I'd go with 3 riggers and add a chute rigger), then 4 good diver rod holders to run 4 divers and either a rocket launcher or rod trees for planer board rods. Don't go cheap on electronics, get the best you can afford. Make sure you have a good marine radio and at least a 9ft antenna.

Fished south of Ludington starting in 150fow working out to 240fow. Hit 2 small kings early on a Moonshine green jeans on rigger at 80ft (hot bait for the day) and a behold flasher and auqa glow fly on a lo diver out 140. Had our best action around 200 fow of water. The MS green jeans took 3 more fish. A jelly bean spoon on a 150 copper took a nice steelhead. Ended up 6 for 8.

I'll send you a text

It is still available.

I have a person who said they were coming to buy it today before 2:30. I just messaged them to see if they are still coming. If they fall through, it's available. I will let you know as soon as I hear from them.

Never used. $80. I travel between Chelsea and Ludington every weekend via 94, I27, I96 and US 31, can meet along the way or pick up in Ludington or Chelsea.

Fishing is great right now. Friday we went north off the bank and worked 100 to 130 fow early and then out to 200 fow later in the morning. We went 11 for 16 with some nice kings. We fished south both days of the weekend fishing 80 to 110 fow early them working 120 to 150 fow after sunrise. There is a nice school of coho there with some big kings and steelhead mixed in. I got a 27-1/2 lb king, our biggest this season. We had over 20 bites each day boxing 14 and 13. We quit between 9:30 to 10am each day. We fished 1/2 cores to 300 coppers, low divers out 110 to 150 ft out and high divers 150 to 200 ft out. Riggers from 30 to 100 down took fish. Plugs were working early with #3 green glow and rainbow and #4 size in black carbon, double glow, glow with blk ladder back and green splatter back being the best. We had white crush and white slick spin doctors with pickled sunshine Flys and frog squids behind them on divers. A blue bubble spin doctor and fly was hot on a high diver out 200ft. Moonshine Craig's flounder, uv mongolian beef, green jeans where stand outs and a Yeck fireball and DW green dolphin worked good. Most boats were doing very good.

Thanks for the report. Hope the fish show back up on the south end.
