DIRTY DOG

All I can say is WOW, theres some brutes out there. Well heres the report, I left the dock Sunday morning around 6 with my ole buddy Dennis and a couple friends from work. We set up in 100 and went on a s.w. troll and could not get anything to go for the first 2 and a half hrs in the 90 to 120 ranges. After makeing a call to a few guys that were in the 160 to 220 range we put a lot more west into it and started takeing fish after we hit the 180 range and finished the morning at noon going 9 for a lot, 6 steelhead and 2 kings and a coho. Monday: left the dock a little earlier,5:30, with my buddy Dennis and his wife. We planned to target big fish this day, becouse Dennis really wanted to get his wife a 20 plus king, and thats what we did. We fished mainly 70 to 100 and ended the day 4 for 9 with all but 1 over 20 lbs ,Lauran had a REALLY hard time controleing these fish. Tuesday evening: Well back at it for the Holland Steelheaders Tuesday Nite Fishing Leage, I ran out and set up in the exact same spot as we did monday morning with RDFishin and a good friend Jeff ,Set lines a little after 6 and pulled shortly after 9 ending the nite 14 for 16 fish another over 20. This box consisted of 1 laker, 6 coho and 7 kings. we took fish every day over 20 lbs and 1 over 25.:thumb: Well heres a few pics of what worked These are just some meat rigs I put togather From left to right these are Mag Kato Silver Streakm Reg size Blue Baboon Silver Streak Lite Green Deva Silver Streak mag.

Hey Ken, I spoke with a few others that were in the area that you were in and the only difference was the water was a little wormer and there was quite a bit of bait in the area south of Saugatuck.

Thanks Dean, very much appreciated.

First of all sorry for not reporting much this summer , but I've been super busy at work and when I have been out not pulling good numbers, but last nite on the other hand. Well here it goes , I let the ramp at 5:30 with fishachine and no mo beggin and pulled lines at 9:30ish finishing 11 for 14 or 15. We set up straight out in 80 and headed s.w. and turned around in 140 with 1 bite and a miss, did a s.e, at 118 degrees and the majic started. We put 5 nice fish in the box and misses or lost 3 more, turned back and followed the track back picking up a few more and one last turn back to the s.e and decided to pull and head in. Here a few pics. Of what worked and the catch. These are as follows Blue Dolphin Silver Steak reg. Miami Dolphin Silver Streak reg. Panty Ho Silver Streak reg. Mongolian Beef moonshine mag Mixed Veggi Silver Streak mini. Not sure of the name of the spin dr. But the fly is a Big Weenie uv something, very good and a size 3 silver red head j-plug Big Rog. With a nice 19 and some change king. And a shot of most of what we ended with in the box.

Nice work Dave.

Nice work Jon, the spoon is a frozen frog.

Now, not to start conflict, but we are also seeing more bait than in a long time again, and most of it is mature, with a fair amount of small.Now tell me again how there is a shortage?
