Wind made it tough yesterday, stayed in close and fished 70-90 fow most of the day. 200 copper w/ blue kevorkian took 1 King, Riggers down 46 and 60 took 3 fish w/blue dolphin and UV Hat trick. Snuck a 300 copper out at the end with a casper/ UV blue cut bait rig and took the last fish. Ended up 5 for 8, all Kings with one at 20lbs, and the rest in the teens. North troll was the best, 2.0-2.3 SOG.

Just to add something from Sanilac this past wknd, took 3 nice Kings in the low teens, released some Lakers over 10lbs, and took a few Steelhead. All fish came near the bottom. 200 copper, slide diver, and riggers took the fish. Long leads on riggers and slide divers w/ spoons(blue kevorkian, super muffin, purple frog) and meat rigs on the coppers.

We need more GLS strain Muskies in Lake Michigan...They can and will eat carp under 30 inches....

I know these are not as portable but, I recently purchased a Work Sharp knife sharpener. This thing really does work well, I've looked closely at my edge after using quick sharpeners and I think they may work but they do a lot of damage IMO. This thing has changed the way I clean fish, I always used an electric for walleyes but, after using this tool I can easily rip through ribs ( I used to cut off the top of the ribs when using a hand knife before) on walleyes in the mid 20 inch size. The larger walleyes (if I keep them) still prove to be somewhat difficult too cut through ribs. Anyways cleaning a 2 man limit is no prob, either is a 2 man limit of perch with this sharpener. I have a couple of old Rada's that I haven't used in awhile and with a good edge these knives are amazing. I would estimate it takes under 3 minutes to completely sharpen a dull knife, and that is with changing a belt! Worth checking out for fillet knives and hunting knives!
