Manistee Labor Day Weekend

[No Limit]

Fished with my Uncle Paul (Quality Time) in Manistee this past weekend. Friday we went 3-4 with two kings and a coho. Kings weighed in at 13 and 18 pounds and the coho was 8. The first two fish came on purple and glow spoons down 75 on the rigger (coho and a lost fish) and the second two fish came on spin doctor fly combos both glow down 80. Speed at the ball was 2.7mph.

Saturday morning we went out again and had five of us go. We went 4-13, we had three rookies on the boat that wanted to man rods and kept losing fish. It was fun to watch them and as much as you tell them what to do they got to excited and lost fish. It was a great time, everyone got to reel in a fish and with our biggest two being 18 and 19 pounds it was a lot of fun. Our riggers were down between 80-90 feet and our speed at the ball was 2.6-2.8 mpg. Most of our fish hit on the wire dipseys one back 225 and the other back 300.

Went out Saturday night and fished in the four footers and went 0-3, one of the guys spent most of the evening puking over the side and another one couldn't do anything but sleep so he didn't get sick. Great weekend though, I wish we could have gotten out Sunday morning but the weather didn't cooperated with us.
