Holland/Saugatuck 8/2 PM

[2MD]

Tall seas but that made success all the sweeter when it eventually came…

Went 3 for 4

Started straight out of Holland – ended up way south by Saugatuck

Zig-zagged between 140FOW and 110FOW, trying all sorts of different angles in the 4-5ft waves and current until eventually shortly after sunset got our chance

Copper350 with white spindoctor & white fly went – came off

High dipsey out 190 with showtime spindoctor and blue fly went – 21# King

Rigger slider went about 58 down with thriller moonshine glow RV spoon – 8# King

5 Color went with size5 scaley green jplug (not we had a small 4 ounce drop weight on this line too to get it down to approx 30ft) – 20# King

All the bites we got here on Friday night happened between 109FOW and 117FOW for whatever it is worth

No bites on meat tonight

Would’ve probably caught several more but had to deal with some tangles and problems with the gear in that 9.30PM-10.30PM money hour and just couldn’t get all the baits we normally use out there working for us

PUG he was especially satisfied in the end and that is what counts!

Good catch under some tough conditions.

Good job in those tall seas.  You have the boat to handle those 4-5 footers.  

I don't go out if it's over a foot anymore.  LOL

I would have been feeding the alewives in those waves.  Good job!

MD - that is big balls fishing in those seas. Nice big kings after dark.
