  1. I got so sick of the B.S. drunks on the radio singing and acting like idiots, that I shut it off. I tried to call you and Don. a few time also, just to get interrupted by someone with too much to drink.
  2. We got a late start Saturday, as my newbie Cousin was at a family event, and couldn't leave. Started setting lines around 8:30 in 120 fow. It didn't take long for things to start happening. With just him and I in the boat and heavy traffic. We ended with only 3 for 6. the best depth was 120-130, but we kept getting pushed out to deeper water. High diver back 250 with a Wonderbread flasher and siggs Blue Dolphin took 2. Full core with a moonshine took 1, Rigger set at 85' with a green/chrome paddle and siggs green&pearl crinkle took 1 that refused to come in to the back of the boat for a clean net job, instead opting to dive down and use the wire of my low diver to free himself. The low diver took a big rip with a Moonshine spoon on it but managed to get off. The other low dive also took a huge rip, and ended up straightening out the swivel. All the fish Saturday night came in a 30-45 minute span following the sun hitting the lake. Sunday am we got a late start again as the ear plugs I was wearing kept me from hearing the cell alarm (cousin in a truck camper snoring keep even the best sleeper awake). Got out to the lake and where greeted withe a nasty sw chop. it took the tin can forever to get to 110 fow. Ended the morning after a short north troll with a laker (went back) on the wire diver, a Steelhead on the full core/ wonderbread J-plug, and a nice Coho off the rigger. the lake was really getting bad so we went back in.
  3. %100 correct, That's the first thing we do, even on smaller fish. [quote name= Question, what do you use to bring the monsters in besides 30lb leaders..... they snapped them like they were paper..? Let me know I'm curiuos...
  4. I went out with a friend of mine on his boat Friday pm. Only ran a spread of 2 riggers, 2 wire divers, 1 250 copper, and 1 full core. Started around 5:30 in 150 fow. We never touched a fish until after dark. Ended with 3 for 4 , Wire diver with a Moonshine Blue lemon back 150 on a 1.5 mag went 3 of the times, and the 250 copper took the other one with a Moonshine night-crawler. Off to Muskegon with a Cousin and his Daughter, for tonight and tomorrow am.
  5. I never understood Pack Fishing. It takes all the fun out of it. Nice job on the fish you got.
  6. Do you use the 30 pound copper? If so, how do you like it?
  7. Nice way to spend the night with your wife. How far out did you go before turning around?
  8. Sounds like some Nasty conditions. Nice job getting some fish. Fairport is on my must do some day list.
  9. One of my all time favorite flasher is a 11 Coyote with a siggs Mountain Dew fly (27-30' lead) run off a wire mag diver. Shown here.
  10. Nice looking ride Dennis. Welcome aboard.
  11. Nice job Jim. Kinda wonder if the lake is ever going to lay down.
