  7. It's been a great year for fishing solo. Going out in the morning again. Back to work tomorrow afternoon.

  10. Working up a good tan. Haven’t found any fish interesting in what I’m dragging.
  11. Out solo in 600 fow now. Set lines about 2 hours ago. Marking a few in the 40-60 range. Seen some steelhead swimming around on the surface. No hits yet. Working my way north to Point Betsie - plan on working into West Platte Bay
  12. Based on fish stocks, Holland Saugatuck and South Haven would have the most returning kings this year.
  13. Have a great time on Isle Royale! Have to make it up there sometime.
  14. It's some sort of Pro King. Green scum line I think. I run bunch of the Pro King flashers.
  15. Fished solo straight out in 240+ fow. Found a scum line and temp break out there and chased in and out of it for about an hour. Managed to go 6/8 and limit out with 5 coho and a pink. Damage was done using 3 color, 5 color with spoons, and downrigger down 50 with a green flasher fly.
  16. Awesome work at the pier heads!
