  1. I used it and it worked awesome! Thanks
  2. Right now I have a 19.5 foot Monark that I love. I have to drive 1.5 hours to get to Huron, or 3ish hours to get to get to Lake Michigan. I am seriously thinking about selling my boat and getting a bigger boat and slipping it somewhere for next season. Then I could just cruise over and save gas and time not trailering everywhere. I would be sleeping on the boat. I am a teacher and don't work in the summers so I have plenty of time to fish, just hate the hassel and money involved in trailering. 1. What could I expect to pay to slip for season? 2. Is there a size of boat that is preferred to slip? I was thinking like a 24 footer. 3. How's the atmosphere at most slips? I would be looking at a fun place with a sense of community and socializing. Thanks!!
  3. Awesome video!!!! Thanks
  4. Ive been catching fish in s. Lk. Huron on both mags and regulars. Last week a fish in the cooler spit up baitfish about 2inches long. Gonna try matching the size of bait with my spoons next time out.
  5. That is awesome!!!
  6. Congratulations!!
  7. Nice pull Bill! I need to get back over there, but it is pricey pulling the boat 1.5 hours over there. If you ever need a crew get ahold of me.
  8. I think beer helps too. Every beer i drink i pour just a little in the lake for the fish gods. A fews times during slow days it has triggered a few hits right after.
  9. This is my first year salmon/trout fishing on my own boat. I fish Lake Huron. Right now I only have 2 electric big jons and 2 braid dipsy diver rods, so I have a small setup. Wanted to start out small to get comfortable before I started to run a larger spread. Question 1. I want to add 2 more diver rods. Should I do 2 more braid or wire? Question 2. I ran free sliders off my riggers for the first time yesterday. Want to make sure I did it right. I set the mainline like I normally do then clipped on the snap swivel with a 6 foot leader and then let it slide down the mainline. Pretty sure I had a few bites on the sliders because the pole tip would shake, but when I grabbed it noone was home. Question 3. Do Lake huron guys use paddle/sd's and flies or just clean spoons? I have had a blast learning/fishing the big water so far. Only been skunked once so far in 6 trips. I have learned a boatload from this site. Thanks guys!

  10. Went out of Port Sanilac today from 2:30-6:30. My buddies son had to go to work so it was a midday trip. Great day to be out. Went 3-5. 70-80 fow. orange chilly willy mag took 1 coho blue dolphin took 1 laker orange chilly willy regular 1 steel
  11. That sounds like a lot of fun. Good job!!
  12. If you go to the lake huron fishing report section I left one from yesterday. Not easy fishing, but if you can find the bait, you will find the fish. Good luck!
  13. The 2 middle fish are definitely salmon after looking closer at pics. The meat was 2 diff colors of pink too for the middle ones. Think d-fresh is right. I better look closer at them before chucking in livewell.
  14. She is just big boned:) Thx guys
  15. The fish were hard to find but after about 5 hours of no hits 6:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m), all heck broke loose. Couldn't get all the rods back in water. Went five for six on nice bows (throwing one spunky one back.) All 6 hits came in about an hour from same general area. 60-80 ft. N or W troll. Awesome day on the water. What worked: blue dolphin took 2 antifreeze took 2 orange chilly willy 1/2
  16. That is a boatload of fish for sure. Great job1
  17. The area and dnr launch are second to none. No idea why more are not taking advantage. I talked to a dnr officer last night for about an hour. He is on some lake trout commitee and said they netted some monster fish up there. The biggest being a 59lb laker.
  18. Ran out to 113 ft this morning and caught a nice king right off bat. Then ran out if gas. Coast gaurd had to rescue us. Boat gauge showed lots of gas, so guess i cant rely on that. Awesome cg crew came from tawas and towed us in 6.2 miles. Good thing they r around, because no boats were around. Pic of fish will be in gallery tomorrow.
  19. Went out yesterday morning and had one rip pn dipsy in 90the ft of water. Going out again to try it now. I was the only trailer in huge beautiful dnr launch.
  20. My girlfriend and I will be camping at the state park in Harrisville this week and I am bringing my boat up to try for some feeesh. Haven't fished harrisville since I was a kid and the salmon were still there in full force. Any hints or tips would be really appreciated. Gonna run a small spread of 2 downriggers and two dipsy divers. Thanks in advance. Brandon
  21. That's a cool looking fish!
