Steelhead in 200 foot of water in Saugatuck

[westrate]

We fished a couple of days this past week and because of the dirty water after the blow last week, we had to fish from 190 foot of water out to 230 foot of water. We found a slick where the blue water started and the chalky water ended and the salmon and steelhead were found just inside the slick in the chalky water. Regular sized stingers (orange crush, orange corey, craigs christmas, jawbreaker) were pulled on almost all the lines from 60 foot of copper to 200 foot of copper, dipsy divers at 60 foot and 130 foot out and downriggers at 30, 40 and 50 foot down. Nice fish with 2 and 3 year old salmon and steelhead from 6 to 12 pounds.

We will probably be pulling the boat next week, however if you need fishing information or information about a fishing charter, email me at [email protected] or call me toll free at 888-253-8372.

That is the same scenario we fished at Muskegon yesterday. The fish were not in the clear or real dirty water. They were in the transition area between the two.

[wild at heart]

went out Port Sheldon to get closer to the clean water. Still had to go to 170. 5 for 8 with 3 nice kings. Should of stayed closer to the color line but went out to 240. rigger 64 down went 4 times and rigger a 150 went once. Lots of bait and hooks deep.
