I use big jon mini disc as they were the simplist to run and you barley feel them when fighting fish. I you them with spoons and harneses.

Well we made it out after the wind quit sat pm for 3 hours (Sebewaing) And only had 4 throw backs on meat. So we decided to try out of caseville this morning. We were greeted at the pier heads with 2-3'ers. So we set up in 13' just north of the head and headed for oak point. We ended up 6for 9 all keepers. Here what worked 2oz BB with green and purple harnesess took 2 on the other side of the boat I ran warrior flutter spoons on mini disc. perch 30' back, blueberry muffin 35' back and another purple and copper color 25' back All fish were taken in the 13' break line between the pier heads and Oak Point speed was 1.8-2.2

Yeah once that wind started to build out of the north I figured it was time to bring the old man and the kid back in. To bad I didn't get the pattern a little sooner. All in all it was a good day. ( turfwrench) What do you use to run your spoons I use mini disc but have had very limited action.

Well I finally got to see the water for the first time sine our house fire in april. We left Sebe. About 6am and were back in by 10 as it started to get rough. We ended up keeping 8 and throwing back 11 12''er's. We started with meat and had to switch to hot n tots and Thundersticks to try to get some keepers. After the switch it was non stop for an hour and all keepers. We started in the slot and then moved over the bar to 14' of water were the keepers were. Every thing inside was 12''. Both cranks in blue/silver H-n-T in gold ladder back And both in fire tiger H-N-T's had 60' leads T sticks had 80' leads

nice job dave how did you finish in tthe tourny

I won't be able to make it tomarrow. I hope to see youj all next month

East side they were in pretty shallow this morning till the bite ended around 9 am. 12' or less then we headed for the plug and finished our limit 12 of 15 cam in 12' or less from 530am till around 815. Then we trolled till 9 with out a hit so we went deep.

Nice work jarod

Glad every turned out good

We will be there Ken Bladerunner

I wouldn't cancel your trip. And I can't make it to the holiday weekend.

Nice job Terry Thanks for the pics. I always read what colors guys are using but the pics really help out.

Another vote for a make up ( hopefully ) Thanks Ken for the update

I'm ready. And can't wait to get back on the water.

Welcome I am sure we will all be jealous of those monster fish you get over there. I'll be looking forward to some pics of the big ones Steve

I have a couple i will check the makes tomarrow and you canhave them for shipping I just didn't want to throw them in the trash

As far forward as I could set mine. But behind the driver seats so you don't have to reach around the operator. Mine work great. Steve

I know who I am nominating to host the next glf get together. I think we could all fit on that thing at once. Nice rig

It will be a great addition

I believe that my insurance has company has had a change of heart. I got a call from their corprate office late last night and have a meeting on monday. They told me that I am covered and that my agent had made a mistake when he said other wise. For some reason they have me meeting a different agent and adjuster than who I dealt with previously. So I hope I have turned the corner now that I am about ready to put the house back together. The lady I am buying the house from is paying for all the supplies and my and my crews time to get the house livable again. I think I should be back home by the middle of the may. I will be having the house to the studs this weekend and the electrician in on tue/wed and after that I will be hanging drywall late next week and painting in 2 weeks. And then the kitchen cupboards and appliances I guess in the end it looks like it will work out good with a little work. I really appreciate all the help you guys have offered here, I am lucky enough to have my father and all his gear that will be able to keep us on the water this year. Thank you All Steve Kelly:grin:

: My dad smokes like an old chevy to as he handles lures. It looks like I am trashing everything and using my fathers gear till I rebuild with my yearly bonus. Or maybe I should just hock it all on craigs list;):lol:

Yeah it looks like my D river fishing is done for the year as my trolling motor and all my jigging rods were melted except 1. but my jigs in the water proof floating case are good still. And to think I laughed at my wife when she bought me that case:lol:
