Does anyone have a good/ cheap prop repair place for the Detroit metro area? My merc 125 prop has seen better days and needs some work. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Yeah I was thinking of trying some of that marine 31 clear vinyl restorer Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

That’s pretty weird that he went out that far... by the way what channel is everyone using? Last two trips I’ve gone out I can’t seem to get a response from anyone but I know the radio is brand new. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Started off the morning around 1100. Blasted right out to 225 and set up SW bound. Fished for around 5 hours in every direction at every speed between 2-4 mph and all the way out to 280. With only 2 shakers to show. Ran all different types and colors of spoons. Lake calmed down quite nicely the only second trip I’ve taken with the new boat. Would have been even nicer if my Biminis clear windows hadn’t yellowed in storage then we would have been even warmer. Gonna try again next week.

Just purchased a new boat with a full enclosure. I’m looking to continue fishing till she ices up. Does anyone have any reports or suggestions for this? I’d prefer salmon but lake trout will do I guess.. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Yeah mine were stuffed as well! Keeping the stocking down seems to be working. Let’s hope they keep the numbers down for a while so we can get a full recovery!

HOT HOT HOT. Finally got off work early when the waves were forecast to be good for the little 16’er. Blasted right out to 90fow and basically immediately after setting we started taking hits. We were only out for three hours and took around 11 hits. Only kept 4 because I physically can’t give away all that fish haha. So what worked? Divers back 91 and 121 with 8” flashers and flies with longer than normal leads. I want to say more than 3 wraps but I can’t remember (30” ?). Also super bright slim spoons on any presentation down 35’ to 55’. The fish seem to be slapping at the flies and getting hooked funny so if you’re losing a lot I’d make the presentations easier for them to zero in on.

We are going out of St. Joseph right now did you guys get out? Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

Yeah I keep debating whether or not I want to winterize the ole tin can. I really need to invest in an islander... Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

Thanks for the report. It’s amazing how the fishery dies once the run hits.... Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

X2 on bleeding out your fish. Cut both of the gills right down the V after bonking them on the head. Looks like a horror movie but works like a champ. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

I'm so happy you found fish, but I'm sad. My 16' deep V doesn't have the courage to go get them.., Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

Dipsys back 250+ have been working a lot lately. If it ain't broke, don't fix it Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman
