Fished with Alex last night after work - had lines set by 6:10 out in 150 FOW.

NOAA kinda missed it again tonight - was a little rough and the wind was relentless. tried a SW troll - made a turn to switch it up to a NW. Cooper sweater time with a 150 & 250.

found that trolling straight back toward the pier head was best for the ride.

ended 1-1 a nice small king 2-3 pounds in 125 FOW, 80 Down on a rigger, Silver Streak Spoon - Chrome with Green/Black ladder back - Not sure on the name.

Pulled lines as the sunset - made for a long run back in @ 8-10 MPH

Weather has missed a lot with the wind out of the east it has never been less than 2 to 3 ft. We gave it a shot on Tuesday out of St Joe and ran out to 120 set lines headed NW and trolled out to 180, didn't mark any bait and very few fish right tite to the bottom. After 3 hours we called it and headed in toward the piers. The 316 Chris is a nice ride in the less than perfect conditions. First skunk of the year.

Nice job on avoiding the skunk Jon. Its been pretty slow going out there lately.

Agreed on those east winds; a steady/strong east blow creates some of the steepest, tightest waves I've seen on Lake MI...and they make anything but trolling to Wisconsin a wet, spine jarring event. In an 18 foot open bow, it also a dangerous proposition as I found out once a couple of years ago.
