8-26-11 Fishing Report

Good fishing up north again today. We set up in the 01’s and in 100 FOW and took it north. Lots of boat traffic made it tough to get any lead core or copper rods out early. We took most of our fish on our wire divers. We didn’t have any spoon bites. When the boats spread out a little we put a couple plugs out on some coppers. The Natural Glow Captains Choice Cut Plug on a 250 took 2 big Kings and a Chrome Red Head Captains Choice Cut Plug on a 200 took 1. We didn’t have them out very long because of boat traffic and steady action on our Spin Doctors and Big Water Meat Rigs on our wires. We didn’t have any rigger bites for the first hour and a half. We took off our spoons and put an 8″ Show Time Spin Doctor/Moo Moo Big Water Rig 65 down on one out down and a 4th of July rig 70 down on the other. We took fish on both of those but never had the chute rigger go all day. Our high wires had a 10″ Glow Blade Blue Bubble Spin Doctor/Blue Moo Big Water Rig on one and and a 10″ White Crush Mountain Dew Spin Doctor/Cold Steel Big Water Rig on the other. They were out 250 feet. The lows were a 10″ Show Time Spin Doctor/Moo Moo Big Water Rig out 165 and a 8″ Blue Chrome Spin Doctor/Cold Steel Big water Rig out 170. They were all going good. It was a slow troll going north and a little faster going south for us.
