Far Beyond Driven Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Fished Holland from 12:30 to 4 with my oldest and my dad. Ended up 7/8, lost a steelie, 5 steelies, a brown and a king. Released them all as none was hooked too badly.Also picked up a mallard someone shot a little too far back that was floating in Lake Mac.Jet skiers were having a Memorial and we ended up running right through the roses that were floating on the lake. That was hard to explain to my kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far Beyond Driven Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 4-6' of water, thin fish and rapalas off boards tight to the boards and riggers set 2' down. We were talking the the people walking the beach.Cannonballs were jumping out of the water between waves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagwood Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Really? I'm a rookie so how and where do you do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Far Beyond Driven Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 Yep. For browns and steelies I like running as close to the beach as I can. Figure the guys flipping spawn from shore can get them, so can I. Sorry Dave Ash..... This works better when there's a little chop, but it it gets too rough the waves will break and shove you all over. Also, if your boat stalls, you have no time to set an anchor. If GH is an option I would head up there - the Grand gets 150k planted vs. 15-20 k at Holland and Saugy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagwood Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Ok I go out of GH today and troll along the beach? Never done that. Sounds fun. What size and color? What about running spoons? Short supply of rapalas. Any suggestions for salmon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Far Beyond Driven Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 We had rapalas, spoons, and thin fish out. One hit on a rapala, one on a spoon, and 6 on the thin fish. Color didn't seem to matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steeliebob Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Nothing beats a good spread on the surf I went 14 for 20 on 10/23 with three poles lined up about 30 feet apart on the surf on Sunday. THe big ones need some of that November weather to head in a little more. It was fun catching the little guys 16 to 22" back to back. I have heard of doing that with a boat and I might try it next year. That close and shallow leaves little room for error though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far Beyond Driven Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 Is this close enough to shore? Went 7/9 this day, limit of browns and a laker, and all but one of the hits was on the shore side of the boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
