East Grand Traverse Bay - Elk Rapids 7/30/13

[Whoopee Tyee]

Went out early this morning looking to find the first Kings. We went North and it seems that was a mistake. I had all Salmon type lures and I caught 4 Ciscos and 6 Lake Trout. Five of the Lakers were under 20 inches and were returned to the bay in good health. At midday we went back by the port and marked quite a few fish that looked more like Kings as they were suspended at 80 feet in 130 FOW. None of them liked my bait however. I caught Ciscos and Lake Trout on Flasher Flies, Spoons, and plugs. Nothing hit my meat rig. Will try again this week.

Did you catch the atlantics in Torch Lake, I caught some there earlier this summer.
