    Yes, not a good yr for fasher/flys for me. Meat did pretty good in May n June but not much after that. But, meat would have done well in Frankfort, but had to cancel that annual trip this yr.

    I did an unofficial non-scientific count on this forum and another forum and here are the spoons that caught the most fish: 1.(7 times) Dreamweaver blue dolphin and rv bl dolphin. 2. (5) Moonshine (MS) bloody nose. 3. (5) MS Bad Toad RV 4. (5) MS Raspberry carbon and RC rv. (Rasp C caught record 46 or 48 pd king last yr) 5. (4) MS green flounder 6. (4) MS dancing anchovy. All with 3 times on list: Flea 4 All by Fuzzy Bear Lures MS 5 eyes MS Green knight MS wonderbread MS blue jeans. Notice a pattern here? Moonshine glow spoons almost all. We always have a bloody nose and blue jeans rv down. And, some non glo that that I use a lot: Bl or gr dolphin Carmel dolphin Double or crush Bl or gr mixed veggies Jagger bomb MS flounder pounder Rasta goose (gold in spring); silver later Gr toad w/white back (spring) Jordo n gold Jordo MS happy meal Whammy (by Warrior, this is usually down mid morning) NBK , aka nat born killer Watermelon Any one called alewife: gr, pk, etc. Very few guys post reports, so results could be skewed, but gives a good idea. And, when none of the above don’t work I look in my boxes for stuff they haven’t see in a while. Lol.

    I go worst case and always look at open water even if I plan on fishing shallower. With all their technolgy, satellites, radar, software, etc how can they be so wrong. A joke!

    Skunk in a few hours. Noaa lied again; supposed to be 1-3s coming down to 1-2s. By the time we set lines in 60’ 2-3s; got to 100’ n 3-5s; trolled back in to 60’ n pulled lines. The Reel Woman, my 21’ Grady, needed a new water pump so she unfortunately went into storage 6 weeks early. Wanted to work 130-150’ at least, but not today. From reports from 2 boats in the river today and yesterday the kings aren’t in the Black River yet.So they should still be staging up in Big Blue. So we’ll try to get in another trip or 2.

    Here ya go. Your lucky day; my boat is parked in front of my house today for Saturday vet trip. They are both DW spoons; one with green on it is uv Jordo, I think it is a super slim; other is reg spoon, gold Jordo w/gold back.

    The east wind past week has brought some kings in to stack up out there in around 100’’ or so. Taking vets out Saturday so hope they are still there then.

    3 for 3; SB rigger caught all 3. small coho; 22 and 23lb kings. Rigger was 50/50, 50 down n 50’ lead length. 22lb king hit the slider, a reg size Jorgo spoon. For my 23lber he hit the main spoon, reg size gold Jordo spoon. Had quite a few marks and quite a few times we could see on the fishfinder that the fish would come up, look at both riggers and swim away. Obviously wrong spoons. That’s when I put down Jordo spoons; hit 5 minutes later. Coho caught in 88 fow trolling west; both kings in 103fow trolling uphill, north. Waves 1-3s, then 1-2s and around 1:45 starting building up again. Usual speed 2-3.1Sog; hits were in 2.7Sog area.

    Fished 120-220 pretty much straight out. 1 for 2; nice steelie in 188’ trolling west on 290’ copper on Warrior whammy spoon. Backing line broke on nice fish on 225 copper in 210’ on MS bloody nose spoon.

    Good job, but foul hooked fish could be expensive.
  11. dan agnello
    1 for 3; laker on dipsey on 3 out 171’ on yellow bikini bottom SD flasher and pickled sunshine fly in 136’. Hit it first, got off, reset it and hit it again to finally hook up. Had fish on in 126’ on way in on 300 copper w/mag Warrior Whammy spoon, but got off. Easy nw 1-3s w/some whitecap’s, very fishable and was actually settling down as predicted. Usual 2-3.1Sog

    Thanks Was thinking to reschedule for today, but Not because it’s Father’s Day.

    Jdh; I hear ya. Anything w/N in it I should probably stay home. Around midnight is was building up at bouy but a 0600 it was 1.2-2.4, so that and fact BS 2-4s was supposed to come down to 1-3s is only reason I didn’t reschedule; well it kind of did come down some at 10:30, but by that time 2 of my crew were chumming and that means pull lines. Sorry Bigbones my radio is still in it’s bag in the cuddy. I monitor 68. I need to pull it out. Guys: Call me anytime on shore or on the water, 517-750-7452. I have 21’ Grady White w/The Reel Woman red lettering on each side. Anyone know what this spoon is called and who makes it? It has caught some nice kings lately and I need more. Going to SJ for new board n release and if anyone knows Phil at Tackle Haven will. No DW in front or Stingray, Stinger or Silver Streak stamped on shiny side; I looked all over online w/no luck. Btw: My 295’ copper broke as I was reeling it in and my Offshore board and a spoon are still on it. Maybe someone farther south will find it and call me. My name n number are on it. Next scheduled trip is Friday, with old neighbors in Jackson. Thks.

    Well on a short trip ended up 2 for 4; 16 and 9lb kings; had a double on when we got big king. Big King came on 300 copper on mag bk/gr/sil hologram spoon; 200 copper one we lost was on uv blue jeans; 9 lb king on CJKing suv smurf meat rig on SB rigger down 61’. Steelhead we lost came on CJ King green glo frog meat rig on dipsey on 3 out 168’. Was rough out there; 2-4s quickly turned to 3-5s, some of crew weren’t feeling good and we pulled lines at 11. Set around 8:15. Went north and trolled south with waves. All fish caught in 108fow. Again Noaa marine weather blew it.

    Thanks for good report. Last time, got first fish in 160’ and went deeper with nothing; came back to 160 and got 7. I should know better to leave fish to find fish. Duh. Taking new crew out Saturday. Thanks, again.
  25. dan agnello
    Thanks for great report. Didn’t see any meat rigs in your report. Last trip 18 n 16 lb kings were on meat on dipseys. Meat may get you some king bites. Next trip in addition to 2 dipseys going to add meat to 1 rigger. Hood Outdoor s has meat strips. Was supposed to fish today but crew was too busy to take off work to fish.
