Muskegon - Cold Water

[GLF]

There currently is a pocket of cold water in closer(50FOW) to shore. It is loaded with fish. It will probably be gone tomorrow with the strong South winds pushing the warm water back in.

well that explains where they went. 3 for 6 this morning fished north and south 80 to 130 we lost another screamer on a Gold Mirage Siggs was 130bk in 85 fow never stoped it or turned it hook came back with fish chunks so may have been hooked on outside of jaw was still razer sharp. We refished the same area as yesterday where we went 3 for 11 made sure all the hooks were sharp. Fish were not there water temp was a little warmer than yesterday so we moved out found colder water but still no decent fish numbers. Pointed back in at 9 am trolled in to 70ft and pulled lines guess we should have fished in further but when we moved the probe up 8 ft to stay off the bottom the temp jumped 6 deg up saw all the boats north of pier perch fishing and figured the water was just gonna get warmer so gave up costs to much to drive around looking for fish. Out 3 times this weekend ended up 8 for 18 spent 200 bucks on boat gas lost or wrecked 80 bucks in gear. Might need a cheaper hobby sure starting to miss my little boat wish the wife would go out on it with me but at least she is having a blast catching big fish and for the first time in years not complaining about how much I spend fishing.
