  1. Slimy hooks - I am in awe about your report. Forgive my rookie questions Do you run in the genny with your boat or was it a hike down to the gorge?

    I ve went out all day with friends last Monday trolling around outside the river in the lake between 30 to 80 FOW. Saw many fish on screen but NADA. My friends said I just suck! I went back to the bay and caught 11 inches perch. Very humbling experience.

    I have never ventured in Genny river with my 21' wellcraft. I am not sure if Jon boat is the way to go through all the way past 104 bridge.

  2. I went out solo on on a short trip on Sunday afternoon from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. No silvers but steelheads! I wanted to get out much earlier in the morning but with my kids and their football schedule, fishing has moved down on my ladder of priorities. ;(

    Trolled in 60 to 80 FOW between IBay and Genny River. Speed between 2.8 and 3.2. First Rigger 20' down and 30 out and second rigger 25' down and 40' out. Screen showed very very little activity after 70 FOW. More activity in 60 FOW.

    Just like the last time when I trolled last Tuesday evening. First fifteen minutes came and I landed 6# Steelehead on DW Michigan Dolphin. Same spoon that got me fish last week on evening trolling. The 2nd fish came on the same spoon and fought for a minute with some cool jumps in the air and then spat out the lure. Then I headed back to the dock wishing I had more time to chase for the steelheads.

  3. Went out solo for a very short evening trip.

    Saw tons of bait in 80 to 90 FOW. After ten minutes, rigger 20' down fired and landed nice 8 lbs steelie on DW spoon (not sure if its Michigan Dolphin DW lure). Temp was 55 on surface and speed was abt 3.0.

    It was a perfect evening to be out with clear sky across the lake and dark cloulds hoovering the land in the background.

  4. I had to twist my buddy's arms repeatedly to get this picture which was waaaayyyyy overdue.

    I took my son out on his birthday last month to catch some browns with local charter captain. It took me a long time to convince my son that there are rewards to reaped for being PATIENT while trolling for fish. My son disliked trolling after several bouts of getting skunked on my boat. This fish was caught near Webster park. Here's a photo of 11th place Brown on Fall Loc. This fish took NK glow frog spoon. I wanted to post this earlier if it was not for the delay with getting htis precious photo. My lesson tells me to get my own digital camera.
