    Didn’t set our alarms early enough and didn’t make it out on the water till around 7am.. set up in 90 FOW and went SE over the sliders down past saugy ended up with 2 fish pretty quick. Around 10am after not getting a bite we went W out to 160 where we got one more. Seems like shallow is good early or late in the day otherwise head out 180+. No hits on flashers or meat. Very few marks. 90 fow - rigger down 55 Shelly Shack RV Mag 95 fow - 225 cu mag DW A bomb 160 fow - rigger down 55 Shelly snack RV Mag Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    My wire divers have about 10’ of braid on the end so I can break the rods down. I used the double Uni knot with no problem. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Beautiful night on the water. Only fished for 3 hours. Ran northwest out to 130. Went on a NW & NE troll and ended up with 5 hits and 3 fish on board. Once we turned on a SW & SE troll all the hits stopped. Seemed like a theme. Everyone on the radio agreed north was a better troll. People seemed to be doing better 130-150. We trolled into 80 fow on our way in. Lots of marks and bait. 3 hits on A bomb spoon, 1 on yellow goby, 1 on meat. 300 cu, 8 color, 60 downrigger, 130 3 setting dipsy.

    Saugy was good to us a week ago! https://www.glerl.noaa.gov/res/glcfs/ncast.php?lake=mih This shows warmer water out deep still. I’m wondering what’s out there… Trophy 1802 out of Holland

    Started around 9am. Unfortunately it was 2-4’ waves so we just trolled around with one line till about 11am when it calmed down and we were able to fish all 6. In about 2 hours we went 2/2 on browns. No real marks near the piers but between 30-40 fow within half mile north and south of the piers there were tons of marks. Both came on UV DW SS spoons 5 colors. Used my new ninja boards which pull great but couldn’t really tell when a fish was on. All my short colors are Penn 320’s and I love them but they’re old and need servicing, does anyone know of a good place to send them? Trophy 1802 out of Holland

    Fish from 2pm-7pm. Ran down to the slides and went south. Started in 120 and ended up in 160. No hits. Once we got back into less than 120 started marking fish. Between 100-120 we took three youngish kings in the 12-18lbs range. Large paddle down 70’ & two hits on Ace Hi plugs UV. 2.7 SOG. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Went out on the big lake for 4 hours today. Started in 120fow with an immediate double. Got one of two steelhead in the boat. Kept going out to 180 fow then back in. No marks all day and no other hits. They went after silver streak standard spoons on 2-3 colors of lead. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Thanks for the update! Hopefully someone has a report from somewhere closer to south Haven but that will be a good start. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Anyone been out? Lake looks calm the next two days. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman

    Remember you can use shorter lengths with a simple snap on torpedo to get extra depth. I use one on my 150’ cu to mimic the depth of a 300. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

    Fished 6am to noon. Started in 110 and went all the way out to 200. No marks, nothing. Came back into 180 when my mag dipsy exploded. Peeled out a solid 300’ of line. Tried to set the drag and.... POP! Not sure if the knot gave out but there’s a 30lb wire breaking salmon swimming around with a mag green dipsy and dreamcatcher flasher in his mouth lol. Only hit of the day. Nice day. No marks. Threw everything but the kitchen sink at em. Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

    I have a humminbird helix 2. I believe it only has one slot for charts. Can you not use the charting feature with the navionics card inserted? Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App

    Can anyone tell me which charts are better for Lake Michigan in a humminbird unit? I only fish Lake Michigan and Huron and want the most detail. Not sure if I should go with the lake master charts or the navionics charts. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App
