Fishing Report

We fished south of Ludington again today setting up in 80 feet of water (fow). The graph was clean.  Capt. Shane on the Dreamweaver was hitting some fish outside us in 120 fow. I was pinned in by  a couple boats and was stuck in 85 feet.  We pulled lines and ran south another mile and set up in 110 fow. It proved to be a good move. A 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Green Mile Big Water Meat Rig out 150 on a high wire took off as soon as we got it set. We missed that one, but that was our hot rig for the day. It went 5 times on the high wire and once on a 250 copper. We had an 8″ Chrome Killer Spin Doctor/Green Moo Dreamweaver Meat Rig (pictured right) out 130 on the other high wire and it was good too. A 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Froggie Big Water Rig went twice out 85 on a low wire diver. We had #3 plugs on our 5 color cores and one on a 7.5 core. One five with a Double Glow Silver Horde went once and the Silver Horde Moldy Wonder Bread on the 7.5 went once. The Chrome Redhead J went twice on the other 5 color. We had about the same action as yesterday but the fish won more today. We only had about a half hour left to go when first mate Austin put out a 8″ Red Mamba Spin Doctor/Car Crash Dreamweaver Meat rig on a 300 copper. It took our last King just like it did Friday. It is proving to be a good late morning rig.  We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs.

We fished south of Ludington today setting up in 95 feet of water (fow). It didn’t take long for the first fish to hit. A nice King took a glow spoon stacked above a 10″ Glow Blade White Crush Spin Doctor/Green Mirage Strong Fly.  We boated that one and hit  King on the stack on another glow spoon down 50 feet. The action was never hot. We would get a bite every 15 or 20 minutes. We took fish on 7.5 & 10 color cores and 150, 200 & 300 coppers. They wanted spoons early and Spin Doctors and meat rigs later. Our high wire divers were  set at 150 & 160 feet. The 150 had a 10″ Green Sparkle Spin Doctor/Green Gasoline Dreamweaver Meat Rig. The 160 had a 10″ Yellow Sparkle Spin Doctor/UV On Ice Big Water Meat Rig.  They each got bit a couple times. We only took one fish on a  low wire . It came on a 10″ Kevin’s Girlfriend Spin Doctor/Froggie Big Water Rig. The big King pictured hit a 10″ Chrome Killer  Spin Doctor/Leprechaun Big Water Rig on a 300 copper. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs.
