WMFL Holland/Saugy 9/10


Recommended Posts

I'm gonna keep this one short because there's not much to tell. Were greeted by fog in the morning in Holland. Made the run to Saugy in 40 FOW where the visibility was better. Got one fish our first pass on a 2 color with silver/orange head J-plug right in front of the channel. Spent the next 2.5 hours trying to get a hit with no success. Ran out to 150 and headed west. Picked up a small king while picking up a planer board in 180 FOW on a 7 color with a miami dolphin. Found a temp break in 195 (went from 52.4 to 58.0 in 50 ft. Worked that for a while with no success. Heard some one catching fish in 110 and headed there for the last 45min and got nothing. Was a very slow day for us, ending 2 for 2 in 6 hours.

We ended up 4 for 11. Key at Saugy was being tight to the plume, but with the traffic we had a couple passes where we had to bail from that troll at the last second. Ended up 3/8 down there, jogged up to Holland and set up south in 30' to miss the pier head. Which we did, although we didn't account for perch boats. Stayed in the channel due to the fog and ended up 1/3 in there, loosing a fish at 12:55.

Lost a double in Saugy when we got into the fog and had to stop the boat when about 5 boats merged off the bow at once, causing both fish to run at us.

What worked:

#4 green glow J on a 2 color: lost one, broke off

Firetiger reef runner 50' out on a flat line, hit and got ran over by another boat

J-13 rapala down 8' on a rigger, 2 kings

Wonderbread J down 6 on a rigger, lost a king we could not turn at 420' on the counter

Yellow nailer plug on a one color, took one while trolling next to Dave Ash - that was fun.

Bomber long A swing and a miss.

Holland:

J-9 orange rapala set for steelies got destroyed by a king. Stupid little hooks didn't stand a chance.

And we took a nice hen on a _____ off a one color. Can't tell all my secrets.

Sucks that we had the fish to win, we saw the one on the rigger we could not stop jump and it was 20+ easy.
