Fishing Report

Tough fishing yesterday. We fished north on the bank. The water was warm all the way to the bottom, same as the day before. They were biting Sunday in the warm water, but not on Monday. The Lake got rough before the day was done and the trip home was a real adventure. Today the fishing was much better. We started out in 90 feet of water (fow) north and trolled out to 350 fow. we hit our first fish in in 110 fow. We boated some nice mature Kings, a couple Coho, and several Steelhead. Not much rigger action. Wire divers and coppers were the ticket today for us. A 8″ Chrome Killer Spin Doctor/ Green Gasoline Dreamweaver Meat Rig out 185 on a high wire diver was good for several fish. We had 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctors/Green Mile Big Water Meat Rigs on the other high diver and a low wire. They both took fish. The high was out 150 and the low 130. Our best coppers were a 150 with a regular size Blue Educator Fuzzy Bear Spoon, a 300 with a 10″ Chrome Killer Spin Doctor/Green Gasoline Dreamweaver Rig, and a 350 with a 10″ Blue Bubble Spin Doctor/Glow Blue Bubble Action Fly. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs.

Fished north again today setting up in 120 feet of water (fow). The water is warm all the way to the bottom, but the fish don’t seem to mind. We took fish on 10 color cores, 150 & 200 coppers with Natural Glow & Michigan Shiner Captain’s Choice Cut Plugs. Our high wire divers were set at 150 with a 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Green Mile Big Water Meat Rig and 180 with a 8″ Chrome Killer/Total Chaos Big Water Rig. A 8″ Chrome Kevorkian Spin Doctor/Green Mile Dreamweaver Meat Rig went twice on a 150 copper. Our only rigger bite came on a pair of  regular size DW Blue Skinny Jeans 70 down. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs.
