Started setting lines down @8am Took 2 kings off riggers one at 35 down green/orange pro king, the other was a fixed slider at 35' down green dolphin, lost a good fish off chute rigger down 55' on a blue and silver j-plug quick release didn't do its job tried to get the ball up before we lost fish but come un-hooked in the process. was trying something new with releases and real quickly went back the the old #16 rubber bands with blacks style releases. about 9:45am 300' of 30# copper went screaming towards wisconsin, with a nother green/orange pro king spoon took awile but landed a 17# king, 3 color took 3 more fish with a blue dolphin mag, 5 color took a king with a caremel dolphin, most fish were from 35-15' that took intrest with the exception of the 17 pounder on the copper. had 2 other riggers go off with nobody home and the leads and copper had about 4 of the same result, seamed like they started biting real short from about 10:30 on, pulled lines at 2pm. Fished from 80-170' fow, with the 80-95' producing and 110-120' and 140-145' also getting action. 2nd time out in a row with no action on dipseys other than the port side took a seriuos wack on the first deployment at about 25' out on a slow feed to 80' out, had both dipseys all over the board trying to get them to fire. wound up 9 for 13-15 a couple of trips not sure. fun day except for the FOG.
