Hotdog71 Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Made another evening trip out on the big lake. Set lines in 100 fow just north of the piers and trolled sw. Found a nick in the backing of the copper as we were setting up, so we decided to fix that before putting the board on. Dad just finished tying it back together and the meat rig took took a rip. 83 ft down in 117 fow, #14 king. Got nothing for the next hour and half. Troll sw to 130 fow then came in heading se to 110fow,then turned and headed n. That's when the fun began. Dipsy 125 back with blue buble fly start hopping, #5 king. Just get it reset and it goes again. This time a #12 king. It got thrashing in the net and trashed the leader so we had to replace it. While trying to get the beads on the new leader the other dipsy set 150 back with a no see um fly starts pounding, #15 king. Got the rod reset while dad finished getting the other dipsy refitted. Just about to reset the blue bubble and the no see um goes again, #13 king. Kinda hectic from 8-8:45 but totally awesome. Pulled lines 9:15 finishing 5 for 5 with no equipment donated to the bottom of the lake. Keep um' tight

pbrktrt Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 The dipsey's seem to be magic on the sunset cruise this time of year. Nice job!
DKuiper Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 Sounds like a great evening! I fished perch out of South Haven yesterday and noticed a boat out there named Summer School. Were you out there?
Just Hook'n Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 That sounds like a lot of fun. Dipseys are a riot to fight big boys on.Great work.
