Ludington Area Fishing Reports

We set up at the Ludington pierheads this morning. We marked quite a few fish on our first pass. We hit 4 fish and boated 3 Kings. After the first pass the fish disappeared from our graph. When we were pulling lines to run out deep we took a Coho on a 5 color core with a #3 Double Glow Plug and we lost a big fish on a 3 color core with a #3 Pinkie Plug. Our first 4 bites came on 3 & 5 color cores with #3 glow plugs. Two friends caught some fish out deep up north yesterday, so we put it on a 330 heading and ran out. We found a slight surface temp break around 320 feet of water and set up there. W trolled northwest out to 400 without a bite so we made a northeast troll. We took a Steelhead on a 5 color core on a Yeck Gold Fireball. We worked back into 250 feet of water without another bite. When we pulled lines, we had a small Coho riding on a 3 color core with a Yeck Fireball. No rigger bites and no diver bites this morning. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s Tackle copper and wire. We pull our lead cores and coppers with Dreamweaver Ninja Boards.

Fished the Ludington Pierheads this morning. Our graph looked good on our first pass across the opening. We took a King on the chute rigger down 20 with a #3 Double Glow Plug in the dark and took another one on a high Slide Diver out 100 with the same plug. We took 3 more Kings, lost one, and 2 Cohos all on #3 Plugs. The action slowed our last couple passes. We were fishing a 2 boat charter with Captain’s Dennis and Justin from Clocked Out Charters. The action slowed for both boats so we pulled lines and headed out to deeper waters. We took a big Steelhead on a high Slide Diver out 110 with a Fireball 2 small Coho and a small Lake Trout. Our group was having a Bachelor Party and it was a fun trip. We use Dreamweaver Premium Strips in all our meat rigs and Morgan’s Tackle copper and wire. We pull our lead cores and coppers with Dreamweaver Ninja Boards.
