In The Net Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 For the weekend we went 15 for 22. Saturday morning was much better than Sunday morning. Best water was between 110-150 fow in front of the projects (which is south) people that went to the bank didnt do very well for the most part. Got some big fish though. 4 20+ pounders and one of those was 26lb. Well Saturday we went 10 for 12. (threw 1 of the small kings back because it wasnt gonna die)Didnt get a hit until 6:30 and then we started hitting the fish. Everything worked copper, downriggers, and dipseys. Hit most fish between 30-50 down. What worked: 200 copper 32lb blue SD and white meat rig (1 king) 200 copper 45lb purple meat rig (big 26 pound king) 150 copper 45lb u of m spoon (1 small king) Dipsey back 105 with blue bubble SD and fly (2-3) Down riggers with fixed sliders down 40 and 50. spoon were green flounder pounder, blue moonshine, wonder bread, green dolphin, silver and yellow moonshine) 5-6 Fun day of fishing. 110 pound box of fish! The big 26 pounder that the 72 year old man drug in! Sunday wasn't nearly as good of fishing. A lot of boats at the fish cleaning station struggled but we managed 5 fish and missed 5 more so 5-10. We got into some steelhead and they were jumping and throwing the hook. What worked: 150 copper 45lb u of m spoon (0-2) 250 copper 45lb green flounder pounder (1-1) 200 copper 45lb purple meat rig (20lber we got on Sunday) Down riggers down 30 and 40 with fixed sliders. Same spoons as day before. (3-6) 20 pounder the little guy brought in
redneckman Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 One of the best reports I have saw! I like the sizes of fish people are brining in this year. Now only if I could get out after some silver fish!
Fishrmac Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Makes me feel better about my pentwater trip in a few weeks!
Rascal Trophy Fishing Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 The big fish so far was in the Ludington offshore classic this weekend, a 29.9 lb king, just barely missing the 30# mark. This means, at least to me, the 30# kings are right behind and coming on strong real soon. Eat kings eat.
fishy1 Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 The tournament had the most 20 # plus fished ever weighed since the start of the tournament trail.Better beef up the tackle for the next 2 months.
Rascal Trophy Fishing Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Thanks Gordon, I truly hope you're right.
In The Net Posted July 22, 2013 Author Posted July 22, 2013 Yeah I saw all the tournament results. Our big fish would have only gotten 6th biggest. That means the fish are huge
Just Hook'n Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Great big hogs...keep em coming...tournament scores are going to be interesting this year
JWheeler Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Some real pigs in there! Nice work! Thanks for the report
