    Or your crew doesn’t put the line behind the pin. Or the split ring the release is on opens up. Or the screw eyes works out of the board…

    I’ve been having problems with picking up green slime while trolling near the bottom or in shallow. That can bugger up the best of swivels.

    Here’s what the pump couldn’t clear out. I think we had four waves in a row wash the bow lights.

    Got out late, launched as JDH came in and got the crap kicked out of us. Before we tucked tail and limped back into port we were 3/4 with two steel and a laker and lost another steel.

    I ran ten rods out of a 14’ with an eight and seven year old in the crew. Second fish was a 8# brown. That got interesting but the youngest crew landed it.

    Man remember when it was two rods each? Rigger and planer board per side or two boards per side? Choices…

    Big Papa bags.

    Glad he didn’t yank you overboard. Can’t be too careful when fishing alone especially this time of year.

    Empty stomach. How? The bait was still there not as much but plenty.

    Daughter home from college went out in spitting showers and an interesting wind. Targeted kings but was more than happy to get this.

    I have caught them off most any pier and in the surf, but fishing very small spawn bags. Ripping into them while they are trying to spawn seems counter productive to a fish with troubled populations, not to mention the crowd this draws leans towards chaos. I’d just assume they close the season down in November like we do for spawning walleye and pike in the spring. I have tried to jig them around the Bubbler in Port Sheldon with limited and mostly lake trout success.

    There will always be stray kings!

    Ended up 2/4 yesterday with a small sheep and this nasty slime monster. Hit on a downrigger on a flicker shad there’s 1000000000 live shad to choose from and you gotta hit the weird purple one…

    Kinda cool to be in an urban area but still on a beautiful river…

    Lake Mac has fall walleye. And that’s not a nut I’ve been able to crack.

    If you don’t have them to compare this check never fails: Top fish in photo coho first ray of the anal fin when pushed up against the body is about 2/3 the length of the base of the anal fin. Bottom fish in photo king first ray of anal fin is about 1/2 the length of the base of the anal fin when pushed up against the body.

    Kings you can pick up by the tail most of the time; coho have a weaker bone structure in the tail and it collapses if you try that. The best way to tell them apart is by pushing down on the anal fin and seeing how far back the front edge reaches once all the way down, but I don’t know the decoder ring for that one off the top of my head.

    King tails heavily spotted top and bottom halves. Coho tail usually only a couple spots on the top half. King photo first coho second.

    Two bigger ones certainly look like kings to me.

    Keep on not quitting for the year!

    I know that spot…

    Saw a report from Whitehall 65-80’ 3 colors on down…

    Has that once; threw what was left in the cooler as it was a tournament. I was gonna weigh it if I had to. Nice fish for this late in the year. September gets tough when the matures run and that part of the mix isn’t an option any more…

    Just the two tonight but man ended up being the two biggest this season.
