Lion Den Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Fishing remains pretty strong out of Muskegon, but COMPLETELY different from last week when the cold water overtook the channel. There was warm water all the way to 120 fow. There are some fish in the warmer inside water, but the more catchable fish are in the 50ish degree water 110-140. Best fishing was 85-135 down in that water. The currents caused by the flip flopping water are difficult. The cooler water was moving east as we fished Wed night. Best presentations are flies right now. Oceana Rapture fly with 11" double pearl Hot Chip continues to be the best by far. The new Silver Hypnotist by Rapture with UV 8" Pro Chip was second and Blue Bubble w/ blue 8" Pro Chip, Green/glow 8" Pro Chip w/ Hypnotist Rapture flies were also very solid. For spoons Blue Machine Stingray, and Wiggle Stingray on the long cores were good. Double Glow Silver Horde Ace Highs on the 300' and 450' Coppers took fish too as the plug bite remains good. Riggers 81-135 down and wire divers 160-200 back were best.
