Killin' It Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 I had the pleasure of fishing with my father in law this morning for his second ever BIG LAKE trip. I worked late last night so we agreed to meet up at 6:30 at his house and make our way to the launch. Needless to say we didnt set lines till 7:30. Following Dirty Dogs report I headed to 50 FOW south of Holland and started working on getting things set. I no more then had the 5 color out with a Mag super screw and the rigger rod in my hand and the 5 color takes off like a bat out of .... I grab the rod and the fight is on for my FIL. I manage to get the riggers set and a dipsey set while the fish put the wood to him. 10 minutes later a nice 8 pound king is in the net.We worked our way south in the 40-60 FOW area with no hits. I turned the boat inward and headed back for home and the rigger BLOWS UP.... I tried to hand the rod off and he would not take it, he was to busy drinking coffee so I got to land a fish. a nice 6 pound king on a Flinstone Monica. 2-2 and pulled lines at 10:00Good morningon the water.What workedSS super screwMonicaWhat didnt workDolphin anythingStrykerOJ/MJMixed VeggieFrozen fruit.
