Notes:

1. PLEASE TURN OFF THE WATER AT THE CLEANING STATION AFTER YOU'RE DONE.  AT LEAST UNTIL THEY GET IT FIXED.

2. Alewives are in the channel and Lake Macatawa in huge numbers.  Hunkered down near the bottom on our way out of the channel, jumping everywhere on our way back in.

3. No matter the forecast.  If there's north wind involved its always bumpier than you would think.  We launched late and it was starting to calm down, but took us a while to motor out to our spot.

4. If you're not marking any fish - move!

Report:

We started in 80 and worked out to deeper water.  Graph was empty from 80-130 fow.  Lots of 3 to 10 lb fish in 140-160 fow last night.  Went 9-9 (8 kings 1 steelhead) in about 1.5 hours once we found them.  Got dark, so we left.

Glow spoons - mag & standards size spoons.  Divers back 65-85.  Riggers down 41 - 55.  100/150/200 Coppers.  WNW/ESE Troll 3.0 mph.

They were working on the cleaning station this morning when I was there. It was up and running and the water shut off seems to be working fine now.
