Fair Haven 7/12

[Great_Laker]

Fished 9-11:30AM east of Fairhaven. 125-150 FOW. Went 4/5 on Kings. All kings on the same spoon and depth. 72 feet down, 2.6 mph and 49 degrees at probe. Downriggers took all hits, nothing on dipseys. Spoon was a green and silver ladder back but first fish chewed the tape off the spoon and the next 4 fish hit the blank silver spoon. Nothing over 5lbs. Wind died and it got hot!

Nice job, was the spoon a Stinger?  They really catch a lot of fish but man they can’t take the heat from anything with teeth.

It was a Pearl warrior spoon. I’ve had it for about 4-years and it’s always a top spoon in the spread. Pretty good longevity for 4 years on these toothy fish!

Can you tell me how far you set back approximately? I’m coming up to fish for the first time in 8 years and cannot recall how far we used to set back

Depends on lure type, conditions, and depth. That day I was running my lower rigger at 20’ behind the ball with spoons, 10’ with spin doctors.
