    Had a little time mid morning so I went out solo and trolled 10-1 pm. Put in at 100 FOW. Trolled out to 160 FOW then back in to 90 ft. Marked a good amount of bait and fish at 130 FOW. 1/1: 6 lb Steelhead, 125 FOW, SWR down 65 ft, brad’s cut plug candy corn with Alewife gel scent. Only a couple of boats out made for a relaxing troll. Still a lot of current to deal with.

    I went out this morning and fished from 130 fow to 160 and back. No action. Pulled lines at 8:15 am. Waves were over 3 ft at 140 fow. Tough sledding for a solo run. Lake laid back down at 50 fow. East wind challenges. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    I fish solo a lot as well. Wearing a life jacket at all times and having shared your plan with someone on shore are musts. I wear an auto-inflating life vest every time. If I stay out longer than my plan I text my wife. When I return and enter the break water I text my wife so she knows I am off the big lake. Seriously considering a wireless kill switch as well.

    I think I heard you on the radio tell them they owe you some money? It was busy out there today. Some guys don’t pay attention or care I guess. Sorry to hear about your lost tackle. I got a late start. Didn’t prepare last night and had a mess with poles tangled sitting on the boat. How many poles can one line get hooked around? Got my lines in around 6:30 and had one on by 6:34. Quickly came unbuttoned. High diver back 100 ft in 80 fow, moonshine green jeans. Had another one on at 6:50 am. Lost it quickly as well. Downrigger down 60 ft, bloody nose spoon. Had some obligations at home so pulled lines at 8:30 am. Had a shaker on the rigger. Successfully got it back in the water. Hit the no wake and saw my starboard rigger cable hanging off the back of the boat. I didn’t even use that rigger today. Must of bounced the ball overboard in the sloppy waters and jerked it off on bottom coming in. Rigger clutch was loose when I noticed. A new one for me.

    Morning started out nicely with a 13 lb king at 6:40 am, high diver back 205 ft, Shelly snack moonshine spoon, 98 fow. That was my last hit until 9:30 am when I pulled lines. I did manage to throw a meat rig in without attaching it to my rigger line. Alas, I pulled in my diver a half an hour later to change presentations and there was my meat rig hooked up on the diver. What are the chances? Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    My autopilot runs the 9.9 hp kicker only. Not the I/O. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    I had a trophy 1802 that I sold this spring and upgraded to a 2152 trophy. Still getting it outfitted but did add autopilot and a kicker which is awesome. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    I think I had a 20 test leader to the diver and then 30 lb braid. Not my best choice. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman
