Hello gentlemen, Just recently bit the bullet and purchased a Fish Hawk snt probe. Looking for any advice on how to make it really pay off. In the past, I would try and hold a 2.5-3 sog but now I should be able to get the rigs that speed as well. Let me know what works for you all. Rig speed? Temperature breaks? Any other advice would be helpful....

Nice work Ken. Gotta love the truck pic!

Hello all, Here is the set up. What do you suggest if I want to try for Walleye? Only ever fished for Salmon in Lake Michigan...I would like to try but don't want to put a whole lot of money into it...

2 Lead cores, 2 down riggers, 2 dipsey divers, 2 planar boards, j-plugs, flys, spoons, couple rapalas...Also have a couple bass rods...

Boat is out of Grand Haven and I have heard that Muskegon could be good for Walleye. Let me know about rigs, depth, speed, time of day and best time of year...What would you do????

Thanks.

Well we thought that we would go out last night and this morning to try and see if we could grab a couple fish before we put the boat away. Got skunked Thursday night but were marking a lot in 220 fow about 80' down. Then went this morning and went 0 for 1 as the line snapped when the fish was half way in. 250 fow about 90' down, white/red/black dot glow spoon with white flourescent flash. Lot of big boats out 250 fow or deeper...

Oh well, maybe we will get out again.

Good Job Jim. Hate those nets!!!!

Great Job Jim. Keep it up!

Yes Mark, that is actually exactly what I said to the other guy. Works like a charm!

Thanks for the report. It is hard to ever get any reports out of Grand Haven. Good work and keep them coming. Going out Thursday night and Friday morning in GH. Will let U know.

Great work! Would have loved to see your reaction with the log!!!!

Got a late start but finally got lines down at 7:15 pm. All hits came in 150 fow. 3 nice kings all on Orange Crush with chrome flasher or green flscent dodger. All on divers with braided line out 100-120'. Marked all kind of stuff at 30-50' down in 150 fow. Ended night 3-3 between 10-13 lbs. No pics as the guy I was with started to filet as I was packing up boat.

Hello gents, what is the rule of thumb with flashers and dodgers? Do you use them only on riggers, dipseys, or lead core? All of them? Use them with spoons or flies or plugs? Any help would be nice. Thanks.

Thx FishNlife. Going out tonight and tomorrow morning. Might start down by PS and work our way north. Will try and post something tomorrow afternoon depending on how we do.

Hello all, has anyone heard anything good out of Grand Haven? Boat is docked there and would rather fish there then PS or Musk. Going out Weds & Thurs... Let me know. Thanks.

Thanks guys. I appreciate it. I don't have the temp probe and speedo for my rigs yet but looking at getting one as soon as I can afford it. Hopefully I will be able to post some success stories this fall like the rest of you. Thanks again and good luck

Hello gentlemen, I have dabbled in Lake Michigan fishing for a couple years now and have not really gotten too serious about it. I try to monitor the reports from this site to see where they are hitting but... This fall I am trying to do a little better but have a few questions. First, what wind directions are bad and good for fall fishing? Second, when it is raining out but semi calm, do the fish bite? Is it worth going out in some drizzle? Third, does anyone have any other advice for a rookie???
