TEAM KICK'R ST. JOSEPH SUMMER CHALLENGE AND MOM'S DAY 5/9-5/10am

[KICK'R]

We headed up to ST. JOE on Friday after work to do some pre fishing for the Schu's Summer Challenge shootout on Saturday. We got the boat launched and ready to go and then of course it started storming so we were unable to do any pre fishing. Saturday morning arrived with some morning showers that made it less than perfect for fishing but the lake was calm we ran to where we heard of good action the day before. We set lines in 95 fow and worked out to 140 fow when the lake started to churn up we decided to make a turn and start heading shallower we trolled all the way back to 50 fow before pulling lines to head to weigh in. We managed to scrape up 4 lake trout and a coho most fish came on rigger down 74 with veggie spoon also a 200 copper took a couple fish blue spoon. We could only weight 5 fish and only 3 lake trout out of the 5 so we ended up weighing our 3 biggest LT and a coho which put us in 7th place in the amateur division. We decided to take my mom out fun fishing on Sunday for mothers day we set lines in 65 fow at 9:30am and worked out to 95 fow then turned and trolled back to 45 fow weather was miserable with wind and rain so we decided to call it a day we only managed 1 laker but at least mom got to reel it in! It was a decent weekend all besides the rain and slow fishing we are looking forward to better weather and results at our next tournament in South Haven, MI! It was a rainy weekend so wasn't able to get as many pictures but here are a few!
