Ok this maybe the wrong place for this so fell free to move it if you would like. My 8 and 10 year old want to go perch fishing. Is there a good port or ports on the west side. I have yet to see good perch fishing here in a while. They dont need trophys they just want to hold their poles and catch fish. Thanks Steve

The boat on the wall was a n aluminum cabin crusier. Possibly an islader or sylvan.

It was crazy busy on the way in sat night. I saw a boat with no anchor light and the guy was flashing boats that were over taking him with a flash light. I tried to get the pic off my phone but can't, the boat on the rocks came really close to making it over. On the way in this morning the owners were tring to pry it off the rocks with 2x4's and back power. The boat was totally out of the water and the bow was above the wall.

That is too cool. I always wanted to go to the rock but in 2 attempts we couldn't make the run. Nice fish

I am glad that no one was seriously hurt When he hit the S wall in manistee Last night. We missed the actual accident but heard the boats hailing the CG about 10 min after we were in. Please becarefull at night I had 2 boatsd pass me with in 30' on the way in sat night. Just because my rig does 40 doesen't mean I do it at night. Steve

Most of the chatter I hear is on 7. I am going this sat and sunday I will post a sat report sat night. Steve

Nice. Nothing beats watching kids get into fish. How come youdon't have a panfish count on you sig. Thats a good way to pad the numbers.

I have my revived salmon rig a 23 donzi. The problem I have is the cash to haul it across the state a coulple of times a month. I am looking for some out door storage in the area. Thanks steve

Welcome There are some great guys here. They have helped me out a ton and answered every question I have had. Steve

now every pro boat has can cheat at ludington and get away witrh it or withdraw that seams pretty simple

Man I feel like its february the way this post is going. Weather or not they cheated is up to the governing body. I was planning on fishing some of the bigger tourney's next year but now I think I will stick to outings and fun tourneys. And there a alot of good guys here that have helped me out way more than they had to And I for one thank them all. Steve

I ran my 300 on churches walleye boards with the factory clips but I wraped the braided backing around the clip 2 times. It held great in 4 to 5 waves I just wish I could have caught a fish on it. Steve

We took the slow ride out sat morning to and hooked up with 2 both on divers 150 back and 175 back. We were out saturday pm and got 2 on DRs 70 and 50 down over 110. On spoons 1 blue dolphinand 1 orange clown. Steve

Thanks for putting this together we had a blast. It looks like we missed an awsome fish fry but we ended up having to come in early because of some beer induced sea sickness. So we had to hit the afternoon bite. I hope to catch up with you guys at the next outing. Steve

Welcome to the site I have a cabin in caseville so I fish the bay a lot also. Steve

Looking forward to a relaunch of our old salmon boat. It will be the first fishing trip on it in 6 years. We just took it out for a wet test yesterday and got everything going We should be all set to get tangled friday afternoon and saturday morning., good news was we didn't sink and the motor ran great. The bad news is I spent 8hrs yesterday trouble shooting eletrical problems with the nav lights and interior lights. It really sucked. I will see you guys FRIDAY:thumb: Steve

Thank you guys I really appreciate all the help Steve

Thanks Now I just hope my knots hold. I'll see this weekend in manistee. Steve

Thanks now I only put about 40' of 20lbs big game as a leader. Do Ineed to have more Thanks Steve

I have a 300' and a 150' copper setups. On the attomic they say 300' is around 88', in my trollers book it says 40', And mosty charts I see have it around 70' All speeds are 2.5. I just need some direction on what is close. And is a 150' close to a full core Thanks STEVE
