Salmon_slammin Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Fun day on the lake today! A little choppy for our 18 footer but we still managed to catch a few fish. We went 4 for 4 out of port Sheldon with the first fish at about 7:00 on a brand new flounder pounder on the 300 copper! We managed to pull in this 14 lb female king going into spawn. We were in about 115 FOW trolling east. The next fish came about an hour later on a dipsey set 130 feet back, in about 90 FOW trolling north. We pulled in this decent laker which had taken a mixed fruit with a big white shiny paddle. (Not sure the name.) The next fish was another lake trout on the same fly and paddle set the same length back in about 120 FOW trolling south. Soon after we caught another lake trout on a proctologist fly on a chrome SD with yellow spots. The diver was set back 110 feet trolling in the same area as the one before. For the next hour and a half we were out there.... Nothing! You know the fishing is slow when a guy comes over the radio and cracks a joke about farting flies!
