Fishmael Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 Has anyone found the fish out of Muskegon lately? Last trip Monday night ran North to Duck Lake and picked up a 16lb king and a 10lb steelhead in 3 hours of trolling 90-110fow. Not complaining:no: Previous 2 trips similar results, slow-slow and more slow. Seen a lot of boats straight out from the peir in 75-120fow but nobody talking on radio. Going back out Thursday-Sunday. Hope to have some good news to report.:confused:
numberguy77 Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 Hopefully today's predicted big north wind will cool off our water and Muskegon fishing will be red hot for the weekend!
MoJoRisin' Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 Don't overlook in close - last weekend they were up in 50 to 60 FOW down 40ft. When we motored back in at 12 noon we saw more marks in there than when we went out towards 100 FOW after the sun came up. Probably should have stayed in close and pounded bottom all morning. I'm sure with the heat earlier they have changed but if the cold water comes back the fish will also.

Fishmael Posted August 4, 2011 Author Posted August 4, 2011 Thanks guys- I hope to find them tomorrow night.
