Holland 5/13&14 AM's WMFL

Where to begin?  All the good action the last 2 days, its kind of overwhelming thinking out this post.

Fished the WMFL Saturday morning.  Thanks to Dirty Dog for running it and Silver Streak for sponsoring.  Set lines in 30 fow of water just south of the channel.  Took first hits in 65 - 75 fow, the rest came in 90-110 fow.  We did work out to 120 fow but no takers.  Finished the day 8 for 10 with 3 10-12 lb kings and 5 coho.  Trolled north/south at 2.7 - 3.1 at the ball.  Only one dipsey hit this whole weekend and we lost it.  Ran riggers 50-70 feet down with sliders about 15 feet  up.  Ran 75, 100, and 120 copper.  Blue dolphin, Bish's bruiser, red monkey puke, U of M frog, blue hulk, red jeans, rickety ranger were spoons that worked.  75 copper running thin fin red with squiggles did not take any hits, nor did starboard dipsey.

With kings finally here and good fishing yesterday, decided to take mom out fishing for Mother's Day.  Pretty much fished the same water except we set up in 60 fow of water today and worked out to 140 with all fish coming between 90-110 again.  Same directions and trolling speeds. Ran 100, 120, 150, and 225 copper all taking hits.  Riggers again 50-70 feet down with sliders.  Spoons taking hits today were red jeans, rickety ranger, blue dolphin, Jerry Lee, U of M frog, and all 3 spoons I got at the WMFL yesterday.  One was called Piston Cup but never bothered to check the names of the other two.  One of these days I'll start posting pics.  Final tally was one 10 lb laker, 3 kings, 4 coho, 4 shaker kings released, and 2 kings lost at the back of the boat.
