6-21-16 Fishing Report

We fished south of Ludington today targeting Lake Trout between 70 and 100 feet of water. The action was slow. I don’t think the full moon or the approaching high pressure system helped things any. All of our bites came on 8″ Chrome Spin Doctors trailed by Spin-N-Glos except the Laker pictured below. We got that one on a UV WhirlyGig , a new product from Dreamweaver. Our crew did a great job landing the fish that bit. We had 7 trout bites and they landed the 6 that hooked up. We  had 2 rigger bites and the rest came on wire divers fished on or near the bottom.  We had a couple high cores out hoping to get a Steelhead or King. A  small Coho took a Super Slim Magic Man on a  3 color core that they opted to throw  back and let grow. We talked to a couple boats fishing offshore and their action was slow too. It took the full trip, but our crew got their Lake Trout limit.
