Nice catch!

That's a nice one!

Thanks for the info in that report.

I could support a huge cut in lake trout like the 62% or now 50% they want for kings for 2017. I can't support a further cut in kings in 2017. We should wait one more year on kings to evaluate the results from the last big cuts. All signs in the lake point out they are working. . Natural reproduction from the nearly non existent 2015 river run is going to be way down for the 2016 year class of kings. The wier returns from last year say it all. So kings just took another huge cut this spring with not many smolts spawned from our rivers. Sent from my SM-G920V using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Nice catch, hope you can find the owner of the cooler.

There is a list here on this site, some of these cams are down but many of the links still work: http://www.greatlakesfisherman.com/fishing-hunting-outdoors/topic/39806-great-lakes-webcams/

Had a great day on Friday by myself. The water flipped over and I fished in tight in 30 - 40 ft of water. A half core with a DW natural glow plug, a 75 copper and a silver horde white and green plug and a rigger with a silver horde green glow blk ladder back plug. I got 5 kings and another coho when pulling lines. I was done by 7:30am. Had 2 doubles, that was exciting. Went back out Saturday, the fish weren't in like they were the day before. We hit 1 and lost it inside then ran out to the 35 line, trolled west and hit and lost 1 out there. We ended 0 for 2. It was slow for my buddies who fished Sunday too.

I should add, I got burned on day 1 due to tackle failure, I haven't seen a size class like this in many years. Only 1 person to blame for that. After working on my gear yesterday afternoon and beefing up like the old days, I did not need to reload at Capt Chuck's today like I had to yesterday.

Fishing has been good the last 2 days. Some big kings have arrived in better numbers. July was a tough month. We have fished north both days from 90 to 120 feet of water early and then out to 150 to 200 ft after the sun is up. We hit 14 yesterday and boxed 7. Today we hit 15 and got our limit. Real nice size class, just like the good old days. 24lbs was the biggest yesterday and 23 lbrs today, a number of 20lb+. Hits came on a Moonshine Mag Oscar on a rigger at 40 ft, green glow blk ladder back sliver horde on secret weapon on a rigger at 45 ft. A 10 inch white/crushed ice paddle and pickled sunshine fly on a rigger from 40 to 65 ft. Pearl and blk dot and white blk ladder silver horde on a half core and a 150 copper. Green sparkler 10 in paddle and pickled sunshine meat rig on a low diver out 100 early and back to 140 later. A white/crushed ice spin doctor and pickled sunshine fly on a hi diver out 90 early and 140 later. A lucky charm DW plug on a 200 copper.

Great catch, good luck in Holland!

Nice catch!

I just let them out until they bump bottom and will check them periodically to make sure they aren't fouled. Sent from my SM-G920V using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Wire divers work good, just have to let them way out and bump bottom or be very close to it. Spin doctors work too with spin and glows, they are more speed forgiving than dodgers if you want to target salmon higher in the water column too.

Pulled at 10am and heading in with 4. Sent from my SM-G920V using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App
