Looks like going deep paid off for you tonight. I started in 160 went to 190 then into 120. When I hit about 140 I started marking a good amount of fish the most I have seen all year. I wish I would have spent more then the last hr between 130-150.

Fished from 0530-1300. Plain and simple it was slow. Didn't mark anything besides a few Lakers on the bottom. Tried from 20-120 and threw the kitchen sink at em. Water is cold still. No one did well based on radio chatter and discussions at the launch.

Great report. Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the info. You had the entire water column covered. It definitely gives some hope for the next month in Western Michigan.

Hopefully the Kings are moving back over from across the lake! 

Did you have a clean temp break in that water?

I had the same fishing Friday night in Port Sheldon . We did better this morning in Muskegon but Friday night was rough.

Fished Muskegon 5-10AM

4/4 5lb, 8lb, 10lb,12lb all Kings. 100ft water was best. 225 copper went twice 300 copper went once and 7 color went once. Blue and glow seemed to be the tickets.

The weeds are not to bad yet. You do want to watch for logs on the way out.

The lake was great 1 ft waves.

FishedPort Sheldon from 5-1030 PM

110-150 ft water. Tried everything but the kitchen sink and couldn't get anything to go. Marked fish across that range but no bait.

What a great day. I thought we had it pretty good Saturday, but it has been on fire the last 2 days. If this holds it might be worth another trip down this weekend. 

It was 48 at the surface and 45 at the ball. With the wind out of the east Saturday afternoon I'm sure it probably pushed the warmer water around

Fished Saturday morning. 

4/5 in 70-90 ft water. 1 19.5lb King, 2 12lb Kings and 1 Laker. Lost the 5th a King at the back of the boat.

Carmel dolphin, meat, and a orange/blue/green spoon took the hits. 30-40 feet down was the depth.

Speed 2.5-2.7 at the ball

Fished St Joe after work from 5-9

Fished north and south of the Pier from 25-75ft. Marked lots of fish north of the Pier but very to the South. Only hit came north of the Pier.
