Holland 9/6 a.m.

[Dagwood]

Fished solo. Set lines at 6:30 in 60 fow. Zigged and zagged out to 130 fow and took a steelie on a NBK down 60- south troll- 3.2 sog. Wandered out to 160 fow. Turned east and the braid dipsey got slammed in 120 fow with a BW greasy weiner meat rig back 200- high diver. Battled for 20 seconds then gone. Felt big but I just can't keep them on the dipsey's this year. Would of been ugly trying to net him anyway. My first mate (13 year old son) was too tired from goose hunting the morning before. Reset the dipsey and took a small laker- 200 back in 110 fow. Finished 2 for 3. So much for 1 foot or less. I cannot get my coppers or core to go. Tried plugs, spoons and flies.

Done at 10:00. No activity at the fish cleaning station. Talked to one other boat and they had 1 fish.

Good luck out there.
