Here is a 30# King my son caught out of the Oak last year.

WOW now thats a real pig!!!

Nice fish, up in Milwaukee the fish are running real deep. I wish that that they were in that shallow.

Hey Kyle , we are now on the map!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Welcome

I started fishing Lake michigan jigging the gaps for Salmon last year, a blast on light tackle. a year later and 30grand lighter , I am addicted to it , and my wife Janice is addicted to eating it. Now I fish 2-3 times a week, still cant get enough.

Mike is there a link to order these decals from the web site?

was wounder why the choices grew/

Do you fish the east side of the lake or the west side.

Have fun!!!

I forgot what having fun was all about for a long time of combat fishing.

A nice calm day on the lake with a box of doughnuts can not be beat!

Can't forget the coffee!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice Jim! How big was the second one down? (That big nasty with the kype)

right around 17lbs , my brother in law caught that one, you can just see the awe in his face. he cant' wait to fish the big lake again.

If you try to net a fish and it gets caught on the side of the net , roll the net under the fish . you will pull it head over and come up under it .

Back at it again last night with my son Nick. Left the harbor about 550 and took a ride north to 110 fow. trolled north north east , The last time we were out we finished and it was Nicks up to bat so we continued, 5 color fires and Nick pulls in a 14lb bruiser,Why he always gets a big fish I will never know, now its my turn Just a few minutes later Dandy Glo J plug fires , this guy didn't want to move and tried to stay deep all the time , very few head shakes . Truns out to be a 14 lb lake trout. My biggest yet. For the next hour about every fifteen minutes a rigger or lead core would fire. Had to hang up with my cousin fish on ! Finished the evening 7 for 9 , most fish caught in 110 fow riggers parked at 90 and 75. 2- 5 color and 2- 7 color. What worked were all glow plugs and spoons. Smallest fish came in at 8 lbs. A very successful night.

Well after you guys said where you could find them I went out and checked for a name , its a DANDY -GLO J Plug, I found a few on ebay and snatch them up, only difference was they are white/black.

the ebay item is here .http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230501759468

The best thing about them is you don't have to worry about charging them.Just what color to put in them.

I seen them at in Sturgeon Bay as well, they were J plugs. Let us know what you think of them.

Kyle they are awesome, the first time we were out and used them I only had it in the water for a short time be for the rigger went off. I have used yellow blue and green inside them so far.

Do you know where you saw them in Sturgon Bay?

Been picking up a lot on J plugs over here also, 110 feet 90 down.one fish even decided that it wanted to keep the plug for its self.

Has any ever seen or knows where I can buy a J Plug that you place a glow stick inside of , My son and I were out last night and lost one to a very large fish that kept the j plug when he broke the line.

These work awesome and I am down to one . Just bought 100 light sticks and would like to use them up .

Nice , I really like the second one.

Bill thats one heck of a fish , I know the feeling of having the fish take a lunge and get caught on the side of the net. Here is what has worked for me when that happens, if you have a really deep net this might not work but what you do is roll the net over and come right under the fish. Never grab the line like I did the first time , laid 2 fingers open real nice. needed to use the first aid kit .That I didn't' buy yet.

Congrats on hitting 100:thumb: I should be getting out Friday afternoon this week for the first run!!! Sounds like good wind for the rest of the week. Hopefully I will have a report.

Will you be out on the weekend? I normally don't fish on Fridays. I should be out sometime this week thinking either Tuesday - thursday

are you fishing out of Green Bay ? kind of curious how the fishing is in the bay. was thinking of taking a trip up to Mariette to do some trolling.

I'm in as long as I'm still fishing this year. surgery is push back a little.(more time on the water) Yea!!!!!!!!!!

West Allis Wisconsin , a suburb of Milwaukee, 15 min from the harbor. Grew up here never fished the lake until last year, should of fished this years ago. Making up for it now!

Nice looking brown Jim.....did you weigh it?

weight on the brown came in at 8lbs , looks like it should have weighed more . the king next to it came in at 15lbs.
