I am unable to fish this weekend due to having other plans.

I'm usually starting out in that 60 to 70 feet stuff and I don't like flasher up that high I switch to them when we fish 70 ft or deeper and I have more confidence in my meat later in the day.

Fishing has slowed down a little bit from earlier in the week, but it is still very good. The fish are still very scattered coming from 3 colors of lead to 120 foot riggers, so its time to pull the big spread out. Spoons have been working up high then moving to a few meat rigs later in the day down deeper. The regular uv mixed veggies has been our hottest bait for the last week on a 5 colors taking everything to big kings to steelhead. Regular orange gator on a 4 color, uv yellow tux on a 7 color, uv gator on a 10 color, regular size mongoose on a 300 copper and 70 foot rigger high slide divers out 90-120 with wonder bread and shanster. Our meat program has been a chute rigger with a blue uv 8inch protroll with blue no see em teasers, low diver with a uv mtn dew protroll with yellow no see em teaser and the other low diver with live wire protroll with illusion teasers to match. Good luck out, any question about my report feel free to ask me.

I fish with all the lockjaw clips on our boards with walleye, tx 22 and tx 44 they work flawless.

There is also the uv stingers there too!

Fishing has been great the past week with the new Stinger UV's in blue dolphin, green dolphin, mixed veggies gator, yellow tux and Nitro Area 51 leading the way. Also have been taking fish on the new Stinger meat rig that should be out soon. Today fish came in 120-200 feet early 50-90 down while Sat we fished offshore and took a nice catch of Steelhead and Kings in the top 50.

SIDE NOTE: You can finally get the new UV stingers at Insta Launch in Manistee.

Fished there also, meat bite wasnt so great but that's why there's flies and spoons.

Do that, Matt!! L-7 at Seng's... We're going to try to be up every weekend if at all possible. Denise has already arranged to take every Friday off so we can do three day weekends!

I look forward to meeting you. By the way.. Was that you scrubbing down Killin Time last Sunday? If it was, we waved at each other.. LOL

Yes that was me, I thought it looked like your 34 ray.

Thanks Matt! I hooked up with Jeff (Double K) this past weekend during Tight Lines for Troops.. He has a good set up and is bringing me a spare bracket to copy. I'll just have to change the angle a little since our transoms aren't the same.

Thanks for all the kind words, fellas!!

Ill have to stop down and say hi sometime this year.

Not the first time iv seen it like that, double k out of Manistee I think has the same thing on his boat.

Fishing this past week has been good with the fish moving in and up. Yesterday fish were coming in the top 65 feet in 100-180 FOW on riggers set 42, 50, and 65 while slide divers out 125 and 8-10 color lead were also effective.!! Fish last night and all came on new Stingray UV's. Our best were Green Dolphin on a 65 rigger, Jager bomb on a 10 color, and Pink Tuxedo on a slide diver. Fish were all taken straight out.

And they said that meat dose not work down there hahah

Sounds like im going to have to call rob and see what this uv purple frog looks like, nice job tho

Man i wish my HS would have did that, i wouldn't of had to skip class and going fishing so much then as i did.

Call chinook pier 616842229 and ask, little easier then getting yelled at by a charter capt

Im sure we will sea you pass up and down the river alot this year, Were the tall blue 31 Silverton at Pier Pressure Marina.

TX-22 for 1 colors of lead to 300 coppers and TX-44 for everything longer, not a problem with see small fish on bigger boards

Yupp all the time, 3 rigger 150 pound power pro, no crimps no kinking the cable. The only problem is when the sea fleas are in they collect on them, we just spray them off when we get back to the slip and its fine!

Nope, I wish just riding and working on everyone else up and down the coast.

Fishing in Manistee has been okay, been pulling some numbers from 150-250 foot of water. Fishing from 75-200ft down. Riggers from 100-200 has been working with 11 inch white and black and with slick glow tape protroll flashers with Hypnotist and Oceana Rapture Trolling Flies, the Area 51 one a 170 rigger was good over the weekend. Low divers out from 200-335 with 8inch U.V purple plaid protroll with a Purple no see em Rapture Trolling Flies meat teaser was good, also the Stinger live wire with the new illusion from Rapture was also good. 300 to 450 copper with some some has been taking fish, the new U.V mixed veggies was good on a 300 and the Green U.V slush took a few fish.

Nice job don, can't beat a mid week 3 man

I run big flashers and flies on everywhere if its a fly bite, if im going to run SRWs with big flashers make sure its the deepest thing or run one on each corner and keep 30ft in ball distance.

Very cool!!!! Them U.V stinger have been HOT HOT HOT all over the place in all colors!!!!!!!

Big boards are great to fight fish on. We run the Dual Planer Board Clip from church tackle, they work great, if your having troubles seeing bites, use a rubber band and hook the rubber band to the clip

Good to have a Northen port guy on.
