dragginballsII Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Got really adventurous tonight & drove out way deep to see if maybe any off shore steelie action, no steelies but ended up 2 for 5. 1 laker off rigger 88 down in 350 fow. took 2 more rigger hits in 300 + and 2 hits on dipsey on 2.5 with blue 8" blue bubble spinney with matching fly in around 250. 1 nice eater king out of those 2 hits. radio chatter sounded like v80 to 95 fow was good at the sizzle. back out in the am for round 2. good fishing to all !!!!!!!!!

steeliebob Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 You must have been way out to find 350 fow in the Michigan pond. I have been 14 miles out of South Haven and in 130 fow. I think that the deepest that I have fished on the Huron pond this year is 130 but I was less than a mile out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLF Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I have been out there before.You must have been way out to find 350 fow in the Michigan pond. I have been 14 miles out of South Haven and in 130 fow. I think that the deepest that I have fished on the Huron pond this year is 130 but I was less than a mile out.I slipped in Muskegon last year. I was in 375FOW, and was 16 miles out. I believe 200FOW, is 8 miles out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Bomb Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Nice try Rick.She gets allot deeper than that, just gotta head north a ways. Was 18 miles outta Onekema in a touch over 800 memorial weekend. Oh was it a wet ride back in the rough seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Far Beyond Driven Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Grand Traverse Bay we fish 500-600' in the 14' and it's a rifle shot to shore. Coming from the barren flat lands down here it's hard to get used to watching the graph cycle up and down so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoJoRisin' Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Once you get to 150 FOW off Muskegon she goes deeper fairly quick. I usually do not go out that far though - my passengers like to see land.As FBD said go north and it is totally different. Like off of Frankfort on the bank or in the herring hole, or the Platte Bays -they are a challenge especially if you are not familiar with the depth chart info. You can be bouncing gear off bottom pretty easy.Our bottom coutours down here are pretty boring compared to Lud and to the north from there.

SUPERTRAMP Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 S. Haven depth at the mid lake buoy is around 330' It is a real run out there but have been there a couple of time looking for the mid lake temp break and the trash line. Sometimes u find it and sometimes u dont. Not a run u want to take unless u are looking for a boat ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
