Got two gizzard shad and countless alewife with the Sabiki Rig at the Oak Creek Power Plant. I was really excited to catch those Gizzard Shad! That's a point in the roughfish tournament I wasn't expecting to get.

It's a venture trailer. No one seems to have the bunks not even the mfg can tell me when they will make them. Can't seem to get a straight answer.Not a good sign. Eastermarine (Delaware) has had them on order for more then a month from Venture trailers. They are a unique bunk with a 6 degree angle cut at the top to match most hulls. I'm working with a company to make my replacements, I will see how that goes.These I will make out of oak, not pressure treated pine as were on the trailer. Not cheap! Boat with not be able launch probably for a month or more while waiting trailer bunks. My back up plan should that fail will be made of the same pressure treated pine I can get at Lowes (4) 10'x8"x3" boards,liquid nails and stainless steel screws or deck screws put them together, cut the angle with my table saw and carpet them, mount them on the trailer while my boats sits at a launch ramp somewhere. Still looking for a spot. To keep it for a few hours so the trailer can be worked on. This is the cheapest by far and quickest, but It will not last the longest. The trailer was built in 2011 so the bunk that failed had a great run. I just waiting to see what works out with the more expensive plan. But, remember I have two boats so my 16-1/2' will still take me fishing, through I will have to watch the weather closer. Sent from my Z5156CC using Great Lakes Fisherman mobile app - Last week

Chasing some more freshwater fish for the tournament I'm in. Went fishing the morning before my last day of work. Only had an hour and a half, but the smallmouth were biting, and a sucker, too. This was on June 7th, so the Milwaukee River was RAGING.

Fished solo, 80-150 fow. 2 for 2. Small lake trout 3# and a 8.18# steelhead. Most bait and fish were between 120-135fow. Both fish were loaded with bait. 1- lake trout, 3#, 11:33am, 5 eyes lure. on DR, down 100, in 140fow, 2.6 sog. S trl, ball temp 43.6. Alot of big marks down low. I was hoping for something bigger with all those marks. He spit his dinner up during my xfer to the cooler. 2-steelhead 8.18#, 11:57am, burnt bread on a slider on DR, rigger was down 98 in 130 fow, on a S trl.. Nice to see that gleam of the Steelie. Current was all over the place down deep. Lake was flat. No bites earlier in the am for me. When I went to pull my boat out, I noticed one of my bunkboards had partially collapsed. This is going to be quite a challenge to repair. Not what I was hoping for at the end of the day. Sent from my Z5156CC using Great Lakes Fisherman mobile app

We trolled from 6 to 10 am. I thought maybe this turnover would fire things up but it didn't seem to have much of an effect. We dropped lines at 65 ft because we saw some enticing marks but after one pass with no takers they went away so we went out and bounced between 110 and 155 ft. We ended up 1-2 with an 8# coho and something big that didn't stay on for long. We also got a shaker throwback king. Here's what took the hits 0-1 mixed veggies spindoctor with a SpongeBob meat rig on 300 copper in 155 ft 1-1 Michigan stinger blue dolphin flasher with a blue dolphin fly on 400 copper in 115 ft Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

I went to a swampy lake because there are bowfin in there. I was targeting them because I'm in a fishing tournament where the goal is to catch as many different freshwater fish species (non micro) that you can during the month of June. I found three other fish species in there, too. It was a battle to land this fish through the slop, but thankfully, it stayed on the hook in a pile of weeds until I could kayak over to net it.

Tangled tackle has the red pepper teasers. All you will need is red beads (or other color) l, hook and swivel. You can do it. -
