    Thanks for answering my burning question of weighted steel. The sink rate. I love how it comes off the reel also as well as how easy it is to untangle. Catch rate hasn’t changed either. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Exactly. Four ft of mono with a swivel on each end clipped to the mainline . It will naturally fall about halfway down in the curve of the mainline . Adds an extra bait in the water without going against your rod count. The challenge is to reel in the slack quickly to catch up to the fish if it hits it as it’s sliding down to the main bait. I tend to loose about half of the fish that hit it. Seems coho and steelhead are fond of it but that’s probably because it’s running higher in the water column Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Mega byte you are correct! Apparently I screwed up the pics on this post. They are all from Monday with the 28 and 21 pound king . Technology and I don’t get along very well. Thank you for your detailed reports as well. I have learned a lot from them ! Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    7/28 fished 6-9 and went 3-5 fishing the same water. Fish included a 24 pound king and two Lakers all in 120 fow. Fish all came deeper with the king hitting a wire diver back 180 with a Kevin’s girlfriend pickled sunshine fly and the trout hitting a double pearl sd with a aqua fly down 110 on a rigger. Lots of fish holding tight to the bottom. Flounder pounder took a screamer on a high diver but got off . Slower action with most of the boats again working out deeper but not many nets moving. Going to have to make the family vacation in traverse city last a little longer next year. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Fished Monday 6-9 and went 5/8 with a smaller steelhead, coho, 12.5 pound king, 21.5 king, and a personal best 28.5 beast. Fished 120-140 fow off point betsie just inside the pack. Temp was down at 80 fow but the fish came out of temp . Big king hit a mag moonshine crab face on a 200 copper and the other kings came on a mag ms green jeans down 65 on a rigger. Other fish came on a regular jj Mac free sliding above a mag ms ice shadow Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Fished an impromptu trip from 5:30 -9:30 after the rain ended. Trolled in and out from 110-140 and went 9-16. Incredible diver and rigger bite. Meat rigs and flys fished 70-90 down did the damage. 24 lb was our biggest. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    After three failed trips in the spring and motor problems that just finally got resolved I finally made it back out. Fished 9-1 starting in 130 out to 150 with no bites and no bait. Worked back in to 120 and starting marking lots of bait and fish in 120 -110 ft . Had three knock offs on a free sliding green knight rv moonshine down 85 on the main but could not connect. Finally connected on a 12 and 15 pound king in 120 ft at 11:45 and 12:15 both on a braided diver set on two back 185 with a chrome frog sd with a green gas meat rig . Felt good to be back on the water and nice to know there are kings around in south haven. Given the amount of boats out it would be nice to start seeing more reports, been a pretty tight lipped year . Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Do you fish for immature kings and steelhead in October? If so how deep do you go ? Never fished that late on the year but I hear it can be good fishing Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman
