holland harbor 9-18

[2MD]

fished holland harbor again today with the kids - was a blast - finally a warm day too

went 3 for 3 on kings - all rather silver yet - all females that fought like the dickens jumping all over

it took us a while to find out where they were hiding - nothing in the channel or mac - they were north of the pier directly off the ottawa beach pavillion deal in that 'hole' that exists there where depth drops from 32 feet to 40 feet.

took a double on riggers 7 down 80 back green ladder and chrome red head at 11am and got both

then a couple hours later nabbed one out of there on orange board with drop weight and fickle pickle jplug

what i cant figure out is how last friday i boated 10 really dark males in the channel and now we are getting silver hens in the open water - i think that the late april ice pack threw the kings off and is making this run very unusual with a lot of fish thinking it is still august

did not see anyone else off holland or on the piers catch fish today

AM we were 1 for 2 in the channel and 1 for 3 north of the channel.

Maybe the colder water this year from the long winter slowed down the maturation of the eggs in the females?

thanks
