It was in the 90's, but this was the biggest one I got out there in my 3 trips.
Guy told us to bring our own rods if we wanted, so I brought ml 6' walleye rod with 6 pound test Tilene.(back b4 all braid) One hell of a fight with that rig.

Not sure if you are familiar with UP Angler, site. Has a few reports, but most people up here are closed mouthed. Check out the lake Superior section. DayBreak Charters(Marquette) and trip to Standard Rock would be the place to go for a true monster. Takes a lot of petro to get there so prices are too high for me anymore. But you won't regret going. But tons of good fishing close to shore also.

Sounds like report to me, I know exactly where they are talking about. It's just a few miles north (lake Superior). Lol.

Take your fish finder off of "fish mode" could be showing plankton or bait and show as Fish. Actually quite useless on that mode, when you see banana shapes, it's fish. And believe you are running too fast.

Might be a year older fish, I'm saying there is more than plenty enough bait to support a king fishery, unlike the DNR is trying to shove down out throats. And most of the "problems" are a direct F U of the DNR, be it the 50's or now.

You guys are all over, love it.. Fishing Freaks for sure, good going on fish!, Nice up here where the big dogs roam, isn't it.
With Lake Superior so close and the Northern Lake Mi fishery, hard for me to roam...

And my GPS speed over ground is always a bit faster than my Depth raider at the ball. I have to be going at least 3, + at times, depending on current, to be 2.5 at ball.

Just know it WAS weighed on registered scale ., I would imagine, they zero'd and put fish in.  Or they are just showing you the digital readout of weight.

I bet not. He was eating the ghost alewives . The ones DNR claim dont exist. Oh wait they will have a ready made excuse - oh the alewives are all the same year class so were still in trouble, oh no we planted fewer fish so yes now you will get bigger ones. Not sure about what all the natural reproduced ones eat.

Yep Seen more bait than they can eat, it is one hell of a big lake, the DNR can't tell you what's in a small inland lake let alone lake MI, .. Trying to pull wool over our eyes, once again......

Not for sure, but do know Door Peninsula ports and ports of UP are landing some big fish. Heard of and seen pics of 29#, 28#, and tons in lower 20's.

I was running them within 2 ft of bottom. Kept bumping to make sure, then would come up 1' or 2.

Both fish I caught hit right after bumping so I can see where it would work, but there was tons and I mean tons of smelt. Going to try a little deeper water next time out. Then I will bust out the 15# wts. Runing 12# for less. Also caught fish bumping bottom with Dipseys, wasn't using cowbells on them, Brads cut bait clean.

How far off ball you guys running cowbells, tried them on Superior last time out, bouncing bottom with riggers, started close 10' couldn't get bit unless I was 40+' . I always run long leads on riggers now on other Riggs only cause it has increased my catch. When others say their riggers are dead, mine are lights out, sometimes 100'+ leads.

I'm sure over 100', this may change.

Darn thing won't let me download photos, sure it's operator error.

Just got a couple Hanging Spoon Holders, very nice.

Big Al's Lure Holders, thanks

If you want to get deep, bag that leadcore and switch to copper or Weighted Steel. Much deeper with less out.

Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

Or get Trolling bags. Got a couple cement blocks If you need an anchor. Lol.

Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

I have these same riggers, someone is going to get one hell of a deal here. Super smooth clutches, great rod holders, good luck selling. If I lived closer I would be on at least one.

That's what you call an artificial reef.
