Slow start for us up north this morning. We had all our rods set before we had our first bite. It came on a 300 copper with a 10″ Chrome Kevorkian Spin Doctor/Green UV Big Water Meat Rig. A low wire diver out 120 with a 10″ Green Holo Slick Spin Doctor/Green Gasoline Dreamweaver Meat Rig took our second fish. They were both Kings. Then we just picked away at them. We took 4 Lake trout on our chute rigger with a Tin Can Dodger/Yellow Red Dot Spin-N-Glow near the bottom. We hit a couple more kings on the Bank before we put it on a 250 troll and worked out to deeper water. We didn’t find any particular band of water that seemed to hold more fish. We would just get a bite every now and then. We took Kings on a 250 copper with a 8″ No See Um Purple Holo Spin Doctor/4th Of July Big Water Meat Rig, a 300 copper with the Chrome Kevorkian/ Green UV Big Water Rig, and a 250 with a 8″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Green Mirage Dreamweaver Meat Rig. We took a Steelhead on a 175 copper with a number 3 Chrome Redhead J-Plug. Our hot set up today was the low wire diver with the 10″ White Green Holo Slick Spin Doctor/Green Gasoline DW Meat Rig. It went 4 times and took the 33 inch Master Angler Steelhead pictured left. It fought like a big King. We were all surprised when it came to the net and we saw it was a Steelie. We took it to Captain Chucks and registered it for a Michigan Master Angler Award when we got back to shore. Only 1 spoon bite. A King took a Mag Fuzzy Bear Blue Educator spoon 70 down on an out down. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s Tackle copper on all our copper rods.
