mikefishes Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Went 3-11, 130 fow, 90' down on riggers, 250' back on mag braid divers, standard spoons in black, imposter spoons with black on them. Marked a ton of fish. Have not been out since early Sept. but it was like we haven't been for years as we had several mistakes like, but not limited to, netted lure instead of fish, watched fish flop around behind the boat instead of bringing it to the net, drag set way to tight (break off), rotten mono leader (break off), couldn't find the pole with the drag that was screaming (fish gone) and threw back a lake trout thinking it was closed season. Not a boat in sight, no waves and fishing in short sleeves, it just don't get any better than that.
Priority1 Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 I'm glad you was able to make it out and catch a few fish in spite of all your difficulties. Winter is a good time to go through all your gear and fix and change as necessary. Tight Lines always.
Fishrmac Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Sometimes those frustrating trips are the ones we look back at and laugh the most. Sounded lime a great time!
Charger Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Thanks for the great report Mike & Chris. Hope to use the information Saturday morning

Boltman Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 I can't tell you, once again How Jealous I am, damn you're out there in October and we're looking at puttin the boat in for the winter....heheheheh Oh well it was a great season for sun in the Fun.
mikefishes Posted October 18, 2013 Author Posted October 18, 2013 A friend and I both decided not to put our boats away till late as possible this year. He was out last Monday and went 4 for 6 in the same area. Between work, wind and bow hunting it is tough finding a time slot that will work. Hoping to get out next week sometime. One really awesome thing about fishing this time of year is you have the whole lake to yourself.
