Thanks for the tips guys. Im going to stick with my gameplan of starting around 90-100FOW and head west. Just hope the wave forecast is correct and this blow dies down!

Im planning on making my shakedown trip tomorrow morning and have been watching the water temps pretty closely. All this wind has dropped the surface temps back into the upper 30's last night. Do you think its still worth trying out deep for some kings or coho like have been caught recently? Or would skinny water be the better idea now?

ive got a happy troller on my 130hp outboard and it works pretty well for me. Im thinking about tryin bags but if it aint broke....

wow seems fast for browns eh? nice job, and I assume this means the docks are in?

ken i have a daydream everyday of something like your basement there. Im loading up at the grand rapids show and thats all the more inspiration i need!

capt john king silver bullet green 2 fly rig behind 12in black mamba reel flasher took 2 fish over 20lbs and none less then 15lbs for me last year.

just my 2 cents but i run my big meat rigs with large flashers at the normal 2.5 orso SOG and did very well with them. I also ran them high in the water column and did great. Mid day or early morning they took hits.

had similar results today at 6th. Saw a ton of fish being takin by boaters.

Managed to fish for a few hours at 6th this morning. Ice was building up a lot on the east side so had to fish the west. Wind was wicked and my hooks kept freezing into iceubes. Had a bite but the treble was so iced it didnt set. Not sure if im brave or stupid.

This is correct

Nice job man. Gotta love steelies. Also be sure to post this in the river forums

im going to duct tape some styrofoam to my back, hold a rod with a dipsy on it and let waves troll me around.

Nice job, where do you primarily fish walleye at?

where were you fishing? wild at heart went 20-23 in holland? Crazy to think the fishing can vary that much.

For out deep blueflasher/bluefly has done pretty good around PS

Tons of fish there right now! Thats really cool

Quick report tonight, it was slow and FOGGY. Only got one in 170FOW, Blue flasher fly on dipsy back 140. Nice 3yr old king I think its about time for me to focus on pike and walleye

size of spoons can matter. Last couple weeks magnums were hot and i was pulling 4 to 5 inch ale's out of the stomachs. Try to match the bait as best you can

thanks, im planning on doing the same saturday night

With the large number of boats in shallow combating, i thought i might go offshore a bit and target better eaters and some steelie. Anybody had any luck lately going for skamania? Any tips?

nice job any size to the fish? any 4yr olds in the bunch?

What were you using to jig?

St Joe does have the steelie plants so there always lots of steelie around in the summer. Though im sure SH sees quite a few of em.

Setup on 150Fow sometime after 6 on a northeast troll. Fished 130-110 ended 3 for 4. Meat continued to be my best rod. 2 green teaser rig behind 11inpaddle on rigger 55down took 21lber and 10lber. Mag flounder took 7lb king on rigger down 55. Dipsy back 130on2 with 10in mtdew SD and mirage fly took a hit but the leader snapped. A bit rough at first but ended nice, and got my second 20+lb king this year.
