I can't tell you, once again How Jealous I am, damn you're out there in October and we're looking at puttin the boat in for the winter....heheheheh Oh well it was a great season for sun in the Fun.

Thanks guys ,reading that it was a tough year makes it all the better. Thanks for the compliments on our Rig it is awesome and takes a lot of work to maintain .

Well this year, I can't say much about except that it SUCKED... for Fishing for Us at least on Lake Michigan. Not many weekends were available to us for getting out on Beautiful Lake Michigan...once we did, Fish really weren't slammin, yeah I know Rookie here, but what they Hell, we did catch 4 feesh.. and I'm ok with that, we've got a little more time to get out there yet this year and we will certainly get out there as much as I possibly.

I know some of you didn't do so well either out there, so there's always next year, and What the hell I have two NEW copper setups to Dream about using....I'm hoping to get them out there this year yet, just to play with them a little bit, get them outside the boat and back....

Tight lines everyone...

Guys, I know it may be boring, but take a look at www.ambiancestravels.blogspot.com You can see what we've done and where we've been on land and Sea...It's been fun

I bought churches TX-22s hoping to go just go out and play with them awhile , and I mean playing not trying to learn to use them in a spread.

Thanks Jim, I appreciate the offer Sir.

And I'm going up to the U.P. with my Wife, and our 5th wheel camper, to Baraga where they won't hear us..... Know what I mean, I'm going to be so far from fishing, I won't even care....

Out of peer frustration, I bought two copper set ups and Churchs Planner boards. I'm tired of not catching fish, I know thats why they call it Fishing...

I'm tired of Dipseys getting tangled...and frankly I'm tired of NOT catching any fish, and I'm hoping to catch more with these copper set ups.

Understand I don't even try to think I'm on the level of skill MOST of you guys possess I am a Rookie....Don't know what we're doing wrong and I'm not sure we are doing anything wrong, because the shear number of fish are certainly down, or at least the reports are clearly down....either way we need some better equipment to get our spread out there and hoping copper can do it for us....

Please let me know how to use these boards, I was able to get some advice from an old pro at my Marina, he was 6 for 8 SAturday night, we got a hitch hiker snagged by a dipsy...go figure..

Any help would be considered awesome.

Good job Jeff thanks for the reports

Went set lines 1/2hour later picked up lines , too rough 4 footers or more out there.

I bought tx-22 from armstrongs and copper poles as well these fish are getting expensive.

They are church tackle for sure now all I have to do is learn how to run them, hahaha

Buying copper set up now what planner boards should I run???

Awesome Jim, what does wall bound mean? Anyways if your fishing this weekend look for us were going to start in 65FOW and troll NW see if that works you won't miss our boat

Damn Nice Job on the 30.2 pounder, We're heading out to Montague for some evening fishing, It looks like we'll start shallow Aye, they are in close I see...

Get some pics up of that fish..

Nailer, Have yeah whacked a few Big Kings in the head lately???

You all should try "Bronco Bobs" redraseberry chipotle marinade , oh my god this stuff is heaven on some fresh kings matter of fact I show my king the marinade just as I toss them in the cooler.. Hahahaha they're happy to get in that box!!!!!

Does anyone know what that was floating around 200 FOW on Saturday, looked like a weather station had solar panel, wind speed sensors it was anchored.!!!! What is it

Boat name is "ambiance" wife named it we were out Saturday night early until 9:30 we started at 6:00pm just floating and trolling it was awesome we'll be out this weekend as well Saturday and Friday nights

Awesome advice guys thanks

Are you saying you didn't see that monster salmon,deadliest catch huge 48 foot boat out at 200FOW Saturday and didnt sAy Hello???? WhiteHall

Well we fished out of Whitehall all weekend , lost more equipment this weekend than I ever have in 1 season. Fist had a tangle, lost flasher board ,spoon and line snapped off. Then got a beast hooked up, so I man handled it and lost it within two minutes of fight it , snapped the leader that is when I blew my cool and wanted to sink the fri kin boat. Then we had engine trouble nothing serious beside a radiator cap losing pressure on the expansion tank on port side,we returned to the slip. Went back out Sunday morning lost another nice coho saw it as it jumped out of the water about 8 feet , I've never seen a fish jump that high before and the mono broke again.. Damn it!!!!!! Just about threw the pole in after it!!! And I don't normally have a temper, but this was about enough of losing fish....nothing hit the rest of the time on Sunday we went too deep.....

Bottom line .... Didnt know mono needed to be replaced every year,mine is 6 years old on the reels still........such a feakin Rookie!!!!!

Btw I'm always hard on myself!!!!! I even kicked my own ass for horsing in the large king!!!!!!! End of story!!!

That's what we found there in white hall fishing was bad,lost a lot of tackle and my temper was flairing.

Awesome ,at least you got fish nice report man fishing is tough this year!!

Wish we could be there, but it's a long run from White hall hope y'all catch some fish , I can pick up any unwanted fish!!!! Just call us we'll travel by car hahahaha 248-866-3604 we're in WhiteHall this weekend !!!!!

SAMs club dude 68.00 it just fine I've had mine for years

We're fishing in White Hall this weekend, going to locate the cold water, and work out from there. Hoping it gets some Feesh in the box,it's going to be a Long winter, I'm still pissed about this summers weather.... sucked most of the time.

But let's get fishing, what do you think, Plugs up high, going to try the Meat Rigs as well.. hope they hit that meat....
