GLF Posted May 11, 2008 Posted May 11, 2008 I made it out of Muskegon this morning with a friend of mine and my two sons. We started off in 50FOW with a full spread of Nitro's. Around 6:30 we caught our first fish on a Nitro Fireball in 50FOW. We trolled around in the 50FOW range for another hour without a bite. After that, we pointed the boat West and worked out to 100FOW. When we hit 107FOW, we took a nice rip on a half core with a Stingray size Diehard. This fish was taking drag when it came unbuttoned. I reset this bait and around 20 minutes later we took another rip on it. We let my youngest son Wyatt reel in his first Lake Michigan fish. With some help from dad, we netted his 6lb lake trout. bRX2zmRFhd0 We trolled around for another hour, shot a dive bomb video, before we pulled lines. I popped the center rigger, and discovered it had a fish on. This ended up being an 11lb lake trout. This fish came on the new Killer Blue Dolphin protype. We finished pulling lines after this and headed in. We ended up 3 for 4. I did hear a few other boats saying they were getting some fishin in the 100-150FOW range.
