8-5-13 Fishing Report

We fished southwest of Ludington today. There were quite a few boats in the area between the pier heads and the project from 40 to 120 feet of water (fow). We set up in 70 fow and trolled out to 100 on our first pass. Our first bites came on an out down set at 50 feet with a pair of glow spoons. We took 3 of our biggest fish on a high wire diver out 120 with a 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Green Mile Big Water meat Rig and Erie Dearie Meat. We lost a big King on the chute rigger down 60 with a 10″ Glow Blade Spin Doctor/Green Mirage Strong Fly. We took another big one on a 10 color core with a regular size Dreamweaver Beefeater spoon. No plug bites for us today, but several boats reported they were having some success with them. We stayed between the pier heads and the project all morning. The boats that ran  offshore to where we have been fishing reported that it was slow again today.
