7-6-12 Fishing Report

Outstanding fishing! Early July has never been so good. We fished north today setting up in the 01’s in 110 fow. Our riggers were set at 55, 75, and 65 ft. all rigged with glow spoons. Our wire divers were hot early, but faded as the day went on. Our morning bite was fast and furious. We trolled between 80 & 120 fow to the 04’s and turned back south. The action slowed the closer we got to the Point. I think it had more to do with it being later in the morning than location. We worked out deeper on our south troll – 160 to 240 fow. Off came the spoons on our riggers and on went the flashers and meat rigs. We had a 10″ White Slick Spin Doctor/Froggie Big Water Tackle Meat rig down 90 on one out down and a 10″ Black Crush Spin Doctor/Moo Moo Meat Rig set at 80 on the other. Our chute rigger had a Purple Haze Kingfisher Flasher/Purple Haze Big Water Meat Rig down 100. They each took at least 2 fish and the Froggie Rig went 4 times. Our best copper was a 300 with a 10″ Green Nuclear Spin Doctor/UV On Ice Big Water Rig. We used Erie Dearie Premium Strips on all our meat rigs.
