5-26-13 Fishing Report

Good fishing today south of Ludington. We started out in 180 fow in the 45’s. Our chute rigger with an 11″ White DW Paddle/Pickled Sunshine Action was the first rod in. Just got the rod tightened up and it took off with a good King on the end. It was set just off the bottom. We landed it, got the rest of the rods set and didn’t take another bite until we turned east. We started marking fish in 165 fow and had good action all the way in to 130 ft. Our best rod was a 10″ White Crush Spin Doctor/Froggie Big Water Meat Rig. It took two Kings on a high wire diver out 330 and another King on a 450 copper. A 350 copper with a 10″ Chrome Spin Doctor/UV On Ice Big Water Meat Rig took two Kings. We kept the chute rigger just off bottom. It took a Lake Trout and missed another fish. Only one spoon bite. It was a mag size glow spoon stacked ten feet above a meat rig down 130 ft. Our first in troll was our best. We worked between the 45’s & 42’s going in to 130 and trolling back out 180 ft.
