Pentwater 8/4-8/6

[Casey II]

Fished Pentwater for the first time. We fished south off the dunes to one mile past the point every day.

8/4 PM- Went 6/12 fishing from 100-120 fow. Temp break was between 65-70 feet down. 225 coppers with Ace High plugs in green splatterback and MOP took fish. UV and Mountain Dew paddles on the riggers and Mountain dew SD on wire also worked.

8/5 AM- Went 11/20'ish with one steelhead released. Strong west winds and 2-4 ft chop actually brought the temp up from 55-60 feet. No plug hits. Most fish came on dipseys back 140 on wire and 160-200 on braid. Mountain dew SD and Fishscale paddle/mirage fly. Coppers with spoons-pink panties, blue dolphin, glow frog all took fish.

8/6 AM Went 8/12 before the wind chased us off. Temp continued to climb with 46 deg 40 foot down. Same program as above but with 75/150 coppers and 100-120 foot leads on the dipseys. Wind picked up at about 0900 and sent us packing.

We had the boom on one of our Big Jons fracture at the block. Does anyone have advice/experience on how to drill that out?
