We trolled from 6 to 11 am in 130-150 fow and went 0-3. We marked a lot of bait but there didn't seem to be many fish around it. All three hits came on a live wire spindoctor with a green spin n glo 110 ft down on a downrigger. It was frustrating considering all the good reports we've seen but it was probably just too nice out to get into them (we get that a lot when it's calm). Also a heads up there's a big arse tree trunk floating around 60 fow just south of Holland, someone already flagged it, you don't see much of it but it's big.

Haven't been out much with all this Covid-19 fallout keeping me at work but I finally got out Sunday morning. We trolled around from 7 to 11 am around 130 ft the whole time. We ended up 2 for 3 with two Lakers 1# and 4# and had probably a king break off. Saw some promising suspended marks but no takers mid column. After about 9 we slowed our troll from 2.4 to 1.7 mph and that's when we got all three hits. Can't wait for this midsummer funk to be done. Here's what took the hits: 2-2 live wire spindoctor with a green spin n glo 110 down on a downrigger 0-1 blue jeans paddle with a blue fly on 200 copper Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

I guess I meant to say boat launches, good to hear there's at least one open Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

How are the marinas there? I'm thinking about launching out of South Haven Sunday but I've heard there marinas are unusable with flooding Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Trolled from about 6:30 to 9 right around 150 feet then got blown off the lake in my small 18 footer. I ended up 1 for 1 with a 22# king. Probably my most victorious 1 for considering I couldn't reach my desired depth with the waves and had my outing cut short.

Up until two years ago I remember the high water mark was 20 and we didn't hit it a lot of years Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Brought my girlfriend out and trolled from 6 to 9 pm. We trolled 180 to 190 and ended up 3 for 5 with an 11# coho, 28# king and 6# steelhead. Here's what took the hits: 2-2 SpongeBob meat rig behind a mixed veggies spindoctor on 300 copper 0-1 lime green fly behind playin in playa big weenie flasher on 200 copper 1-2 green and white fly behind a green alewife spindoctor on a dipsy 150 back set on 2 Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

If you cut the head and belly meat off the alewife it fits perfectly in the helmet Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

We trolled from 6 to 9:30 am and tried everything between 190 and 130 feet. We ended up 1 for 3 with a 4# coho. All hits were around 140 feet. Here's what took the hits: 1-1 300 copper SpongeBob meat rig on a mixed veggies spindoctor 0-1 UV crush green dot Dreamweaver paddle with a matching meat rig on a diwnrigger 100 ft down 0-1 UV Lorin frog on 150 copper Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

That one wasn't set yet, that king hit while I was setting the rigger up so I stopped with it just dangling Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

We trolled just north of Holland from 6 to 10 am. We started in 120 and went 3 for 3 in our first hour with a 5# coho and an 8# and 15# king. After that, nothing. All three fish were on 300 copper with a mixed veggies spindoctor and SpongeBob meat rig. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

I never quite understood why but outside of the occasional laker or steelhead I can never really get much in shallow bait balls this time of year, even when the water's turned over Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Nice report, good to see they haven't completely scattered here Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Yeah that was definitely a drop back, he was more pink when I caught him and his underbelly was bruised Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Did a solo maiden voyage from 6:30 to 10:30, ended up 2 for 4 with a 4# king and 3# steelhead. Got a double header right off the bat in about 110 fow and only landed one, shortly after came the steelhead in 105 fow and about an hour later I had what had to be a bigger king on in 130 fow and lost it. I must not have dialed them right considering all the good reports I've been hearing. Here's what took the hits: 1-1 Moonshine flounder pounder magnum on 200 copper 1-1 Michigan stinger uv fruit stand on 150 copper 0-1 Michigan stinger magnum mixed veggies blue on diwnrigger 55 ft down 0-1 Pro king blue jeans flasher fly combo on a #1 dipsy 150 ft back Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Set lines south of Holland in 125 fow at 5:30 and pulled them at 10. I ended up 2 for 4 with a 4# coho and a 3# laker. My hits were all around 135 fow.

I've never been north of Whitehall during a flip so I guess I can't speak for those ports. I'm pretty sure a buddy of mine gets them in Manistee harbor though Sent from my SM-G930V using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

When the water near shore turns over they gather around the piers and you can cast net them up Sent from my SM-G930V using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App
