What were you running between dipsey and Board and Board and Fly? And how fast were you going?

[jeffsisson]

We ran boards with 10,7,5 lead with spoons and plugs then pulled them all and went to running 6 dipseys and two riggers ran dipseys on 3,1.5,0 settings ([email protected]@ 145--0@ 90 riggers set back 20ft at 50 and 45 down in 48 to 60 fow (bumped bottom more than a few times and would just raise them up a couple feet on north troll we took 5 or 6 hits at 2.1 to 1.8 and on south trolls we took all the rest including big kings @ 2.5 to 2.9 those r GPS speeds not at the ball in desp need of a fishhawk to get real temps and speed at ball all flies where run with either white spindoctors with green or mntdew on one side and glow on other or fishcatcher black paddles with plaid / green paddle with fish scale took couple hits as well didn't run any flys off plainers

Great action in the ports of Ludington and Pentwater right now, some real BIG FISH being taken right now. Come prepared with heavy line, and batteries charged up to full for these BRUTE KINGS that can tear a man's arm out of the sockets.
