  1. Put in around 7 this morning. A lot more traffic at the launch today. Had a slow start in 20-25 fow. Moved in to 15 fow and hit a nice little flurry from 9-10:30. Ended up boating 7 browns and lost track of how many short hits I had. Not really sure what that was all about. Had at least half a dozen come unglued before I got the rod out of the holder. Lost 3 or 4 more halfway in. It was a little frustrating, but I guess you can’t get em all. Surface temp was 45-47 degrees. Only hit one fish between 11 and 1 o’clock when I packed up. Beautiful day to fish! On a sidenote, the launch was a little chaotic both going in and pulling out. A lot of people just getting out for the first time. Saw some adult children arguing and carrying on. I won’t bore you with the details... We all need to have a little extra patience since the launches are not at full capacity. Please be kind to one another out there! Setter
  2. Thanks guys. I’ve used these for kings in shallow water in the fall so figured I’d try them for the browns. Apparently they like em too. I don’t have a huge selection of spoons to choose from so figured I’d try what I had before buying more. I’ll probably have to add a couple more to the arsenal now!
  3. Didn’t make it out yesterday while the sun was shining, but I had a window of opportunity to fish this morning. Got the rain gear out and ran up to Mexico Point. Launched around 6:30 finished by 11. Had a great morning! Went 10/12 on browns all in 20-25 fow, all on lead core and evil eyes. Made a few adjustments to my simple two rod setup and it seemed to work out. Mostly cookie cutters but I did have a couple nice ones mixed in. Kept one for the smoker that was hooked bad. Water temps were 44-46. Fish didn’t seem to be concentrated in any one particular area and the water was clear heading toward the plant. Started and finished with the same two spoons which both got equal action. All in all, I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.
  4. Thank you for the warm welcome! I look forward to being a part of this community!!
  5. Pine Grove is open. There is no dock in as of this morning. Also no charge to launch at this time.
  6. Hello everyone! First post here, so be gentle... I fished solo out of Selkirk (Pine Grove) today and went 0-2. Headed south and ran stingers most of the time fished on weighted flat lines in 8-12 ft at 1.8-2.4 mph. I had zero hits. Moved out and fished 20-22 with lead core and had two fish on briefly. Both on uv cadyshack stinger and both in almost exactly the same location. Surface temp was 43-44 in most areas. Water was variably stained out to about 45 ft. I'm by no means a pro when it comes to fishing the big lake and don't have down riggers. I generally fish 2 rods and fish alone, so take this report for what it is. Hope to get back out Saturday, maybe in a different area. Tight Lines, Setter
