We were aprehensive when we left the dock this afternoon. There were storm clouds over the Lake and the two reports from boats that fished in the morning wern’t very encouraging. Our crew wanted to go so we headed out and went north. We set up off the Bank in 130 feet of water. The break was down 70 feet. We didn’t have all our rods set when an out down set at 80 feet fired. It was a big fish and Marty our birthday girl had her hands full with this one. It turned out to be 2 fish on the same rod. The big King hit a 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Green Mile Big Water Meat Rig and the small King took a regular size Dreamweaver Super Bread spoon stacked 10 feet above the Spin Doctor. We hit 2 more big big fish on a high wire diver out 220 with a 10 White Crush Black Dot Spin Doctor/Vanilla Ice Big Water Meat Rig. We missed the 1st one and broke off the 2nd one. Then our wire divers got hot. We didn’t land them all. A high wire with a 10″ Blue Bubble Spin Doctor/Blue Fairways Strong Fly went twice out 245. A low wire out 170 with a 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Green Mile Big Water Meat Rig went twice and the other low wire out 150 with 10″ White Slick Spin Doctor/Pickled Sunshine Action Fly took a big King. We hit 1 more on the high wire with the 10″ White Crush Black Dot Spin Doctor this on had a Black UV Big Water Meat Rig behind it since our last Vanilla Ice Rig got bit off. Our last fish came in the dark on a 300 copper with a Mag Fuzzy Bear Green Skinny Jeans. It was raining pretty hard most of the trip but the action was good. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s copper on all our copper rods.
