  1. Does anyone know an older gentleman with a mustache who drives a lightly colored blue Truck with a browning sticker on the back window who was at the Yacht Basin Marina cleaning fish around 2:15 this afternoon. Call me 616-403-8370.
  2. Started out trolling the beach going 1/2 with a nicely colored brown. Spent about 2 hours in there and the action wasn't as steady as I was hoping so we slid out between 30-60 foot to catch some trout. Fishing was stellar with 30+ fish landed in about 4 hours of fishing. Happy I was able to make it out one last time before the freeze. All spoons were SilverStreaks. Beach Bites: Both on a flat line 55 behind the board with a BayRat short shallow goby High Divers: back 50-60 with standard lemonberry and mini veggie 150ft segments of Morgan's Copper pulled by Church Tackle Tx22's: One had a mag u of m froggie and one had a mini green alien Hope everyone has a good winter.

  3. Holland 5/13-5/21 Fish has been exceptionally good the past few weeks. Probably some of the best spring fishing we have seen in years. There has been a mix of coho and kings being caught everywhere from the pier heads out to 200 foot. Our typical troll has been set in 90 FOW and ride a south west to 190 FOW. The larger mix of kings seemed to be in 110-150 while smaller kings and coho were outside of that. Sunday morning, we opted to fish the piers as there was a storm coming and we weren't sure what the storm was going to do. Going 3/4 our first pass, we ended up staying in there the whole day taking 25 fish. I do think that the pier head fishing is done or at its near end as the water continues to warm. Fish were still being caught in the GH piers as of this morning though and the pier head fishery will stay longer in a larger river than it will down here. I will list our set ups below. Pier head set up: Flatlines: Bay Rat short shallows with coho crusher and red hot 1 colors: Silver streak mini mixed veggie and mini gold jager bomb 2 colors: Silver streak regular sized orange crush and jager bomb 3 colors: Silver streak silver orange chilly willy and gold orange chilly willy 4 colors: Silver streak gold jagerbomb and spotted veggie Riggers and divers: Same assortment of spoons as listed above, all standards or mags 90-190 FOW: Lead segments, Morgan's Copper, pulled behind Church boards 1 colors: Bay rat coho crusher and red hot short shallows 3 color: Super slim gold magic man or silver magic man 4 color: Silver streak Orange crush standard 5 color: Silver streak orange chilly willy standard 75 copper: Silver streak skittles standard 150: Silver streak SOG from or standard Stinger coyote 200: Silver streak U of M frog standard 250: Silver streak LT. Green diva mag or modified blue dolphin Mag 300: Silver streak rainbow alewife mag or metallic green frog mag Riggers: Outdowns have been between 45 and 60 with standard Silver streak mixed veggies or jager bombs. We have been running free sliders on the outdowns as the coho seem to love them, super slim hello darlin, orange crush or a uv stinger veggie have been on the free sliders. Chute: Between 70-90 down with Big Weenie Brand meat rigs, UV spotted dick, thruster buster or pole dancer. High divers: Rotators or standard spoons 135-190 back, Mountain dew spinnie with Big weenie Catch a Bunch Mirage or Silver Streak standard uv veggie Low Divers: 90-150 back Small white paddles (fishscale or slick) with Big Weenie frosted Luke or Catch a Bunch Mirage. or BW meat rigs, same as listed above. As always, if you want a more up to date fishing report, just text or call me at 616-403-8370 Good luck out there, Capt. Nick www.reeltalksportfishing.com
  4. Glad it helps you guys out! I'll do my best to keep them coming.
  5. Holland- 4/20-4/28 Hey guys, I am going to try and post weekly fishing reports this year. I may be behind a week or two but I'll try my best. What I post is everything we have been/are doing and any good, reliable information that I have heard. Hope this helps some of you. If anyone ever has any questions or needs a fishing report the morning of, I will include my phone number below or send me a PM. End of last week/into the weekend: Many boats were still going offshore to find coho and the occasional steelhead/king. We were targeting anywhere from 190-260 foot of water, with the best water moving daily. The fish were being taken from flat lines down to 150-175 on the riggers. I will go through what we were using below this paragraph. The coho seemed to be concentrated more down south out in front of St. Joe and the fish that were in front of Holland seemed to have moved more north towards Grand Haven. We are typically trolling anywhere from 2.5-2.9 SOG. Our As for baits, read below. Flat Lines: We have been running Bay Rat Lures S-3's or Short Shallows. These are baits that aren't well known in our area but believe me, they catch fish. The best colors have been mixed veggie, lady bug, red hot, coho crusher and BT candy. 1-7 color: On our leads run behind Church Boards, we have been running mini streaks in silver, copper and gold blanks. Our best baits have been mixed veggie, lady bug, orange chilly willy, jager bomb, pink panties, viper, lemonberry and skittles. I have heard solid reports of people running coho dodgers and peanut flies up high and doing extremely well. 150+ Morgans Copper: Our deeper boards have been a mix of standard size spoons and flasher/fly combos. The spoons have been just the standard size of the ones listed above. As for rotator combos, it seems to vary each day. Our best rig has been a mixed veggie spinnie or 8' wiener and a proctologist, arctic blast or poofster. Riggers: Standard size spoons on the mainline and mini streaks on free sliders. Once again, with the spoons listed above. Spoons have been above 100 and rotators below that. High Divers: 125-175 back with standard size spoons. We ran a trip on Tuesday and decided to stay inshore to fish for kings/trout. We fished from Saugatuck down to the south between 45-75 foot of water. Pretty much the same setups as above but we switched the riggers out for trout rigs/mag spoons and most of the minis to standards or mags. Our king bites came on: 5 color: standard size SOG frog 7 color: standard size smurf Outdown 45 down: Mag U of M frog Trout were biting spoons as well as trout rigs. Pretty easy pickings. Hope this helps. Let me know if there is any interest in me continually posting these reports. Capt. Nick 616-403-8370 www.reeltalksportfishing.com

  7. I run a boat in Holland if you're interested!! Good boats in saugatuck would be best chance or black betty.
  8. I have a clarion paired with a tournament series okuma roller rod and I love it! No issues at all.
  9. They're out there!!! This was Holland Wednesday evening.
  10. My buddy wanted some lake trout so we went on a "trout scout" mission for the evening. Set up in 80 fow out of Holland and put the boat on a due south. Put one trout rig down on a rigger and ran the rest in hopes there was some kings around. Ended 5/7 on trout with just the one rigger down so they're down there and willing to bite. Coppers were dead but we did take a really nice steelie on a 3 color with a mini streak Jerry Lee. Our low divers back 130 and 150 with meat were pretty hot but we couldn't get them to stick, went 1/4 on meat bites but they all seemed to be king bites. The 10' spotted dick big weenie rig went 3 times 150 back and the 10' blue tribal series big weenie rig went once. Kevorkian spinnie on a high diver with a big weenie proctologist flie went once as well. Surface temp was 68-69 and on the bottom with the trout rig was 42. There wasn't really any current so we took fish going both north and south. Sog was 2.3-2.5 and down was the same. Beautiful night on the water. I believe we ended 7/13.
