zgrinder on Fin Warrior Posted July 5, 2021 Posted July 5, 2021 Fished the holiday from 4:00-7:00pm after running to West Marine to replace the house battery that gave up the ghost. Blew me away that WM was open on a holiday and equally so that they had a group 31 Northstar AGM battery in stock. WM saved the day as all my electronics were down. Worked mostly 115-145FOW. Water was far colder than Monday & Wednesday when lines needed to be 80' down or more. Plenty of marks but not a bump. Turned to shore at 7:00pm to pull lines and the 300' copper on the inside of the turn with green teaser meat rig / green & silver paddle on a board came to life. After a long battle, put a 20lb king in the box that will bless us with steaks tonight. Fireworks off the channel were good last night. Fin Warrior 4
CAC Posted July 5, 2021 Posted July 5, 2021 Wow nice catch, especially for a slow evening of fishing. And kudos to West Marine for saving the day!!!Reel Therapy Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman 1
Zhaan90 Posted July 5, 2021 Posted July 5, 2021 Very nice! We went out from 730 to 930 with no hits. Did not really mark anything either. Only excitement was a 400 and 300 copper getting into a rats nest.Sent from my SM-N960U using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App 1
zgrinder on Fin Warrior Posted July 5, 2021 Author Posted July 5, 2021 I sure hope that tangle did not come as dusk!
Zhaan90 Posted July 7, 2021 Posted July 7, 2021 Just before dusk, made to sharp of a turn and was in a hurry to get in before fireworks.
