What a great day on the water. It was absolutely flat compared to last Sat am. We got lines wet by about 6:00 and started picking them back up right away. I got the first rigger set 45 down in about 65fow and it popped. Area 51 nitro. Put it down and it went again, missed that one. Put it down and it went again, this time on the slider, Green Fireball Nitro, by this time I think we were in about 80fow. Next one was on full core with a double glow J plug in 85fow. Things slowed down for an hour or so at this time. Then we picked up Jim Bobbers chatter on the radio about JP slammers, so we figured what the hay. Threw out Carmel Dolphin JP slammer on half core and bingo. As soon as it got straight it started bouncing. Missed a big fish (Mike would say a 53 pounder) on the downrigger at 50 in 105fow. Snapped the line about 10 foot off the pole. Picked up our last fish in about 110fow on full core with a NBK JP Slammer. Ended up 5 for 7. All smaller fish. Between 5 and 8 pounds. All in all a great day on the water with a Buddy I had not spent time with in a while from the Detroit area.
