Great job on the brown. Too bad loosing the big one. I have never caught one, but sure would like to.

We were out last night and lost 3 out of our four fish. I do not know what the deal is, earlier this year we went 21 fish in a row without a single loss.

A buddy of mine was out last night as well and went 4 -12. At least he had equipment failures, tangles, ect. as an excuse.

I'm bummed we only got hit four times.

Had two hits on a magnum dipsey set on #2 back 145' with a spin doctor (don't know the name - it is blue or green depending how you look at it with a glow crush back) another hit on the same dipsey with a moonshine TNT spoon and landed the fish on 300' of copper with my mystery spoon (see this post - http://www.greatlakesfisherman.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22899&highlight=spoon)

Hope to get out again on Sunday.

I figured out that the spin doctor I was referring to was a "Kevorkian" I went up to D&R Sports here in Kalamazoo this afternoon and purchased the last two they had. Heading out tomorrow morning.
