westrate Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 We finally got a chance to fish with out wind, rain and high winds. We set lines in 100 foot of water and because of the Southeast winds were limited to a west troll. We caught three Chinook salmon from 10 to 15 pounds from 120 foot to 150 foot and lost 3 more during that time period. From 150 to 190 foot of water we caught another smaller salmon and lost another. We trolled back into 130 foot and, with a decrease in the wind, trolled south and picked up another 5 salmon two of which were small and released. In this 130 to 140 foot of water we took thee more coho salmon and missed 2 or three others.Early in the day, the salmon hit Hot Chip flashers (mountain dew and silver green) and Rapture frosted fern flies on the low divers and mixed veggie Stingrays on the down-riggers at 45 and 50 foot down. As the day progressed the action on the down-riggers and divers slowed and the copper (100, 200 and 300 foot) picked up. We tried regular size and magnum stingers, however the only hits we could get is on the Stingray size lures (green glow frog, carmel dolphin, blue green dolphin, craigs christmas and mixed veggie).There are reports that a few walleye being caught in the Kalamazoo river between the bridges and also from the basin out to the lake.For more information or for charter reservations, email me at [email protected].
