1mainiac Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Went out with Steve this evening we left the launch at 3:30 PM and got back in around 10:30 PM first time out in his boat this year. We started just south of the north nets in 185 FOW and trolled SW to 350 lots of shakers and knock offs. Picked up a couple of small kings in the 220 ft range Worked that for a while lots of shakers there as well tossed back more than we kept. Ended up with 4 small kings out of over 13 biggest was under 5 lbs we marked little fish and caught and released little fish all night. No fly bite at all pretty much every spoon we ran had a hit Orange yellow and blue were all good colors. 5 Color went several times but no fish big enough to keep 10 color same issue riggers at 50 ft and up took a couple of small kings and divers 120 back with spoons took a couple worth keeping. There are tons of small fish in the 130 to 180 ft range straight out and tons of small fish in the 240 to 300 ft range just don't expect any large tugs. Have not checked our total track but would guess we put 40 miles on his boat to end with 4 small fish was going to go out in the morning but cancelled not worth the boat gas.
silver one Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Thanks for the report Jim. That is alot of water you covered.
Priority1 Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Jim, June is tough for salmon. Take a trip to the Saginaw Bay and Whack some walleye.
BIGTREBLE Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Right you are the Return On Investment is just not there, but it is a nice boat ride. Good job on the 4 fish. Thunder Duck only boated seven yesterday so you know its tough and they ran 24 miles off shore
fishsniffer Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 very nice jim...we are gonna head out in a few and see about the gills...not worth the gas on the big lake.....still gonna try and get some scales though
dragginballsII Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Hey Jim, we also fished 6/13 in the morning from daybreak till 10:30 am. We worked the waters from 220 to 350 fow and ended up about the same. 9 small kings and 1 laker. everything was working,10 colors, 3 colors, wire divers 220 back and riggers from 65 to 35 down with long leads but no sizable fish worth mentioning. We also decided to cancel out on Sundays trip. Maybe we will try again next weekend. Good Fishing to all, Dragginballs.
