WTG, Keep on slamin em. Little things can make a huge difference.

WTG, It's GR8 just to get out on the water. I think we are seeing the June Salmon Lull.
-
I like taking some time with the kids. It's GR8 when they want to go places, and do things with us. In a few years I'll have him setting lines. They grow up way too fast. Enjoy every minute you can with the kids.

Those weren't shakers, they were shivers. LOL It's always good to get out on the big water.

You shouldn't have a problem running 4 rods off two riggers and 2 Dipsys. If one of the riggers go, you could bring the fish in up the chute or swing the rigger back and play the fish off the corner. A good wheel man can keep that fish any place you want it.

A warm welcome 2 U Andrew. U will like it here.

Try a half cup of bleach and some laundry detergent in a pail of water. Scrub with a stiff brush. Leave the suds sit on the problem spots for a few minutes.
Caution: DO NOT use dish detergent or Ammonia with bleach. Most dish detergents have some ammonia in them.

Nick,It is GR8 just to get out on the water. The fish are just a bonus. The fish act differently as a storm goes through. Sometimes they turn on just before the storm, but seem to get lock jaw right afterwards.

Welcome aboard Matt. You will like it here.

WTG Ed. I can't wait to pull my boat across M55 and hit Manistee a few times this Summer. It would be great if they pulled most of those nets before I get there. Manistee has never let me down.

WTG Terry. I'm in need of a King fix real soon.
-
GJ Skip. We ran a similar program Sat. except we used bouncers. Orange was what made em go for us also.
We had some tough conditions North. That S. wind had us in 2-3 foot waves when we cleared the points near AuGres.
-
You can count me in on the pig roast. I like one good meal a day. Sandwiches and munchies get me by while on the boat.

GJ Dan.
I bounced around out on the Bay today also. I had my 4 yo grandson aboard, so it was not about numbers today. We just tried to get a few fish on, and make it a fun experience for him. I'm still using crawlers. We got the skunk out before I put out the second board. We hit our spot and kept going with the waves. I didn't want to go back against the waves with a rookie driver.
We were getting hit with some 3 foot waves. For those of you that never fished the Sag Bay, the waves are close together and will beat the heck out of you and your equipment. I would rather fish 6 foot waves in open water a 100 ft deep, than to tackle 3 footers on the Bay. Five out of the last seven days on the water. I'm taking a break tomorrow, and get my equipment back up to snuff. Darn I need to man the lawnmower also.

My 4yo grandson's first Walleye. The kids are my Priority1. I think he's hooked.
-
I don't like them at all for Salmon fishing. They are fine for Walleye.
I don't own one, but used one on my brother's boat. I always lift the net vertical to close the bag and lock em in.
-
GJ Russ. I'm in need of some Salmon Slamin.
-
TYVM for the information. I think I will stay in the tent section. Do you think I will need reservations? Most places fill up with RVs but hardly ever fill the tent section. I am assuming there is adequate parking for trucks and boats, in the tent section.
-
LOL Dan. A little closer than 24 miles. My 21 yo 22 footer averages 5-1/2 gallons per trip. I don't run a kicker, and use a drift sock to slow down to Walleye speed. Even at that 5.5 gal per trip X $3.20/gal X 5 trips this week = $88 in fuel costs for the boat. The 4 WD PU used to pull it is another story. Doggone Oil Companies.

Saginaw Bay same program. 3 man limit, on 06-15-07.
My son and grandson are coming over tomorrow, and we have to do it again. That will make 5 out of the last 7 days fishing. Ya got ta luv it.

WTG Dan.
I haven't been out since Tuesday, but will change that tomorrow morning. The last 4 trips = 40 walleye in the box. I have found a spot that has been giving up about 4 or 5 legal size fish to 1 throw back. Before that I was sorting at a ratio of about 1 to 1. I'm still running meat, but may change soon. I have run some Tots, but the meat seemed to light em up better so far. Sunday Eve when I was out we had to coax the fish to hit. What ever we did they seemed to want it different. We would speed up and hit a few and then nothing. We would slow down and hit a couple, and so on. We started steering like a drunken sailor, to speed and slow the boards and that helped. Find out what they want, and give em lots of it.

Looks like we have a MOPAR Man. MOPARs ruled back then.
-
Yes it is on fire. WTG Dan.
We pulled another 2 man limit Sunday Eve.
30+FOW B.B. crawler harnesses 1 to 2.2 MPH. Inline boards and over the side. Going again tomorrow eve. and Tue morning weather permitting.
