Holland 5-9-17 am

Launched in Holland this morning and set lines in 60 fow.  Worked between 60 & 80 down to Saugatuck and then turned around and worked back north between 80 & 100 fow.  I think we ended up something like 11 for 18?  Put 4 kings, 1 coho & 6 lake trout in the box.  Lost about 3-4 kings and 3-4 lakers while pulling them in.  Awesome day on the water.  Mag spoons early, normal or small spoons later - mixed veggie was hot.  Flasher fly on a diver out 100 ft in 60-80 and out 140 in 80-100 was the rod for the lakers.  Speed was 2.6-2.8 mph at the ball.

What worked:

1-1 King - Mag diver on 1.5 back 67 ft with Pro King antifreeze & mirage fly.

1-2 King - Rigger down 33 ft with silver streak mag mixed veggie

1-2 Coho (king) - Rigger down 50 ft free slider silver streak mixed veggie

5-7 Lakers (lakers) - Mag diver on 1.5 back 100 & later 140 ft 8" spinny kevorkian & poofster fly

1-2 King (laker) - Slide Diver on 3.5 back 75 ft  green/white/yellow stinger spoon with copper back

1-1 Laker - 6 Color Lead with UV orange BLL Solar Flare

0-1 (king) - 150 Copper with Stingray Mixed Veggie

0-1 (king) - 200 Copper with Stingray Mixed Veggie

1-1 King - 100 Copper with Stinger Mixed Veggie

Hadn't seen or heard any good reports about kings in at Holland, so we went out deep for coho which are still there.  16 for 21 all coho from 235-270 fow though best was 235-250.   Mainly east west troll 2.5-2.9 at the ball. Set lines in 180 fow and first hit came in 235.  Made 2 passes out and 2 passes in and last fish came just at the start of trolling out for 3rd time.  All 9 rods went, with best being red/squiggle thin fin on 75 copper.

Also ran 2 color with gold/red thin fin, 7 color with Jerry Lee, dipsey with UV crush spindoctor and Last Brunch fly back 135, dipsey with laser lightsaver spindoctor and BIg Weenie Bushy Beaver fly,  rigger down 80 with educator spoon, rigger down 70 with Moonshine Rickety Ranger, Rigger down 55 with red Monkey Puke, rigger down 65 with Michigan Frog
