it was a great time captain and was a pleasure, hope we can help again next year!!

wtg TJ you wamped me this weekend!!!!

they were probly steeelies and yes a flat line would work great for them,

pre fished friday for the michigan steelheaders challenge , we fished 115 fow to 130 fow and every where else without much luck we went 4 fer 7 on friday morning and 3 for 9 in 85 fow for the tourney on sat. went out tonight and fished for a little more than an hour went 2 for 4 in 130 to 160 fow then the storms started to move in so we ran for home. While we were out we caught a 10 lb king that tangled our swr , 250 copper,and 300 copper !!!! lost both coppers but saved the 2 colors of lead. Thanks to all who participated in the mish challenge it was a huge succsess we had 43 boats in it ,the fishing was tuff but there was still lots of fish brought to the scales the big fish was a 17 lb plus lake trout.

Great job Erik you spanked me today!!

The fishing is still hot out of holland , we went to 100 fow and set up got a 12 lb laker while letting the 300 copper out with a laker taker jp slammer, then started to get fish quick enough we couldnt get all 9 rods out ,finally got em all in and turned around in 190 fow, got back to 160 fow and hooked up on a quad:eek: we had just 3 of us so we let two of em just run til we got the first ones in the boat then we pulled in the other two by then we were in 100 fow turned and hooked up to a double got them in and then kinda picked away at en til 11:00 and pulled lines with 13 in the box we only thru back one small king today kept one coho the rest were 8 to 16 lb kings.

Holland has lots of hotels and yacht basin has transient slips for around 35 bucks a night the fishing has been pretty good around here, there is a very good tackle shop south of holland in saugatuck( lakeshore out fitters) that will have every thing you need for tackle, and a west marine in holland for any safety equipment you may nead.If you decide to come down to holland give me a jingle and i can give you a hand , i am prefishing friday am for a tourney so will be out there on that day for sure but i could give you a crash course on the port and on setting up your riggers. Just pm me if you are coming . jimmy vanbrocklin

end of the sliders south 80 to 120 fow on bottom with a tin can dodger with a light green spin n glow with a green teaser flie behind that, lightly bounce bottom and watch the rod closly.

nice job Phil!

Fished out of holland this morning we started in 100 fow and had a rod pop as we were setting it on rigger down 80 ish with an orange fuzzy glow frog this spoon caught 3 nice kings for us today! we fished out to 130 fow and took three in row then went from there to 170 and the fish shut off for us so we went back to 130 fow found lots of bait and hooks, cranked em u p again,turned it south and pounded them till around 10:00 and pulled lines with 10 fish in the box and 4 turned loose, and 3 lost ( I found some bent hooks duh!) below is what worked for us . The fish are still all over out there from the beach out to 200 plus with pockets of high concentrations get out there before they are gone!
