westrate Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Fishing really picked up off of Saugatuck this week with catches in the double figures and 14 fish boated on Sunday. The bait continues to set up in 100-130 FOW. The lake trout are feeding near the bottom with coho and steelhead near the surface. A few kings were taken usually 50-80 feet down. Best baits for the lake trout were Goldstar dodgers with spin and glows or Rapture flies bounced along the bottom. Our best combinations were chrome/glow with a no-see-um, chrome/lazer with a Oceana, hammered chrome with a green spin and glow, and white with a pearl spin and glow. We had action on coho and steelhead on high divers with small orange dodgers and mini-Rapture flies (wild fern and hyptnotist). On the coppers we caught steelhead on 50-150 coppers with jarger bomb, dbl. orange crush, and coyote Stinger spoons. We expect the kings to move in the bait as it continues to stabilize.

Duraflame Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Thanks for the detailed report. I've been having trouble out of Saugatuck recently, with three skunk trips two weeks ago. Decided to take a couple weeks off to wait for it to pick back up. I'll probably head out later this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
