Bite was tough off Port Sheldon yesterday. Alot of lock jaw and bed grass floating for us. I was constantly cleanly the lures. We were much shallower than you Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Fished 20-40fow south of piers, picked up only hit (Steelhead, 9.45#) in 37 fow on 4C with silver orange NBK ladder back. He hit just as I finished letting the 4C out. Marked lots of fish, but no takers after that. Cold water was definitely in close. 1ft waves.

0 for 1, lost steelhead on board, with 4 color. He ran around with it and as I tried to bring it in a little quicker, he was able to spit the hook out of my waternelon spoon. Fish were on the otherside of the lake for me today otherwise. I fished 50-150fow, north and south of Port Sheldon zig-zaging and straight trolls. Lots of lure changes. Question though? I was using an Offshore yellow board and I have it set to release but stay where it is on the line. I like that setup. Now, the question I have. what is the best process to bring in the fish ( in this case the steelhead I lost) crank normal until you can reach the board and remove it from the line, then fight the fish or crank it quickly to the board then fight the fish? Should I have let the fish set the hook better before I do either method? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App
