What is a Skams? I'm not familiar with that term.

Lost 2 this morning, 1 shook the hook and the other was a real heart breaker when we couldn't get the salmon around all the other fishing rods and riggers. Went south Holland to Saugatuck 2.3 mph lost a fish with my lemonberry in 108' on 10 color. Other hook was with spotted bloody nose on a 8 color. No hits on riggers using meat, flys or spoons.

Back in a couple weeks.

That's awesome. Hand lined a 19 lb.er. I can only imagine chasing that board. Thanks for sharing.

I didn't hand line it. I went back and scooped up the board in the net. Threaded it back thru the reel an cranked it back slowly because after I saw the board floating I figured the line must be laying on the bottom with a very angry fish who was just tired as heck!

Trolled south in 105' toward Saugatuck picked up a 3.5 lb coho on a FC with a lemon berry. Made a turn around coming back up from Saugatuck and about 3 miles from Holland picked up a 37" king salmon 19lbs on a monkey puke spoon in 110' with a 8 color core. It took my 8 color lead core, board, spoon and the line off my reel. We had to pull our lines in and go back a 1/4 mile to pick up the board and fish that was still hooked to the line. It was GREAT! Picture is in the public album.

This AM, between Holland and Saugatuck. 1 king at 50' with a lemonberry in 110' on a full leadcore. 1 bite on a 8 color LC with a monkey puke, but shook it off, in 80'. Part of my meat rig eaten in 110', but no tip left, must have been a drive thru. Hot and lots fleas.

Where is sliders?

Congrats on the catch. What was the settings on your dipsys?

Some people just don't get it? Good post.

I know the feeling. I will be out tomorrow evening and let you know how it goes.

I'm planning on a trip to HS during July-August. How is the fishing out of there? I have a 27' boat.
