jimcr Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Been a while since I posted a report . Lots of cold water just north of Milwaukee so that is where we went. I got to take out my wife Janice tonight , went 5 for 5 with one drive by. Started setting lines , put 1 7 color out and grabbed the dipsey rod to set it out and pow the 7 color starts screaming , said to Jan this ones yours, not only did she pick up a real nice 14 lb king but also found out what popeye arms are. Reset the 7 color put out the dipsey that I started on, let the line out on the other 7 color and before I could get the board on the same rod as before fires again. another nice king for me about 13 lbs. Managed to get both 7 colors set and 2 dipseys now. and Jan says shes tired of driving already . So I say let me finish putting out this rigger and I 'll drive for a while , no sooner do I get the rigger set and sit down and take the wheel the rigger fires ,Small king maybe five lbs . Can't seem to get the complete spread in the water today, well I did finally , not 5 minutes later rigger fires , grab it and nothing but air, reset and get to relax for a while. I had told Jan that we would keep it a short night since she has to work ing the morning, so we turned south and headed back, Watching the port 7 color it was acting funny, not pulling out drag but weird so I decided to bring it in to see if something fouled it , sure enough something fouled it alright a 10lb king. I reset set again and told Jan that we would pull lines in 5. 6 lines out I started with the hot rod , pulled that one first, moved to the other 7 color we had out and while pulling it in a king grabbed it. hand off the pole to Jan and pull in the two riggers to have room for this one it seemed large , and I was pulling rods anyhow. Another nice king for the box 10lbs. Boxed 5 fish in just under an hour and 15 mins. Lures that worked : Blue dolphin x3 7 color blue dolphin rigger set 50 back 50 down. Mixed veggies 7 color No hits on dipseys , bite has really gone to spoons. One Lamprey not swimming anymore either.
