SUPERTRAMP Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 We left the slip at 6:05 and ran out to 75 FOW set lines an headed SW into a stiff breeze. Rigger at 78 ripped and we landed the nice 21# King on a PK KEVORKIAN MAG GLOW SPOON, NEXT FISH WAS ON A MT DEW PK 8"PADDLE WITH A PICKLED SUNSHINE HOME TIED FLY, NICE 12#2oz.(official scale) Coho, next was a nice Lake Trout 83 down on a Green paddle with a green frog meat rig. Finished with a small 2 year old king on the same mtn dew paddle and home tied fly. Fished 75 to 115 FOW. Only 4 hits, boated all 4 and they were eating the baits all the way down. My its great fishing if you get into them, a couple of my friends had catches of 9 and 11 fish respectively. Give St Joe a try if you want some good mixed bag catches. Oh BTW perch are on fire in 35 to 45 FOW north of Rocky Gap in front of the concrete wall. Limit catches of 10 to 12 inch perch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horseshoe Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Good job on the salmon. I made it out perch fishing twice over the weekend, but ended up going south down by Chalets. Saturday we got a very nice two man limit in 34 feet. Sunday we only managed 20, but they were nice quality perch in the same area. Sure don't see many St. Joe reports for the number of boats out there fishing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
its an addiction Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Thanks for the quality report! I hope to get out this weekend for both the yellow bellies and a morning troll. BTW, where is this Rocky Gap you speak of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, where is this Rocky Gap you speak of?Rocky Gap is north of Jean Klok park, if you go past the beaches you will see a concrete wall that was put in there for Whirlpool (I think). Hard to miss it. I will be fishing Sunday and Monday, not sure if going for big fish or yellow bellies but maybe both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martemucci Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Thanks for the St. Joe report. My three buddies and I fish St. Joe often and never see many reports either. We post when we catch fish. Excited to hear about Perch. We are up to more postings for St. Joe. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
