There are still a few silver and chrome fish around in close.  Finally got both of my fishing partner together for a great morning on the pond. Powered to 65fow and laid out an 8 rod spread and our “409” shute line w/ a fire tiger crank bait.  A wide assortment of spoons, sliders, F/F and meat.  After about a 2hr boat ride it turned into a fishing trip. The 1^st King was boxed 90fow on a double orange crush free slider. An hour later we box a King on a DR down 60ft in 112fow after he rapped up a braided dive.  We got lucky.  Shortly after the last turn at 150fow we boxed a HOT 9# Steely on a 250x45 CU w/ a NBK and we puttered toward the river.  At 120fow the 200x45 CU w/ a mixed veggie fired resulting in our 3^rd King of the morning.  Had a little tickle of a mag diver on 1&1/2 out 150’ but no fish.  As the morning wore on the lake went so flat you could see the wakes from the boards.  Trolled E & W, cross current at 2.5sog.  Not a touch on meat or any of the F/F’s I tried.  We never marked any bait but all 4 fish were packed solid with Ales.  And what fish we did mark were hugging the bottom.                                                                                   NO GREASE IN OUR BOAT TODAY !!!!!!!!!!!
