Dr Hook Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Holland 5/31 AM Set up just south of Port Sheldon just to try something new looking for bigger fish. Worked 70-140 fow in a zig zag pattern. Nice 1 foot chop to start built to 2-3's by mid morning so we called it quits. Wound up 6 for 6 which isn't bad but they were all shaker kings and all were thrown back. Troll was NE and NW mainly 2.5 - 2.8 at the ball. Again ran 4 riggers staggered from 70 down up to 50 down, 150 - 180 - 225 coppers. Dipseys started 75 and 90 back and finished at 125 and 150 back didn't take any hits. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleboat Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Wind looked like it was going to be a tough one today. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Great Lakes Fisherman Mobile App Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coralee Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 wind was blowing the boat sideways so a nice looking spread was almost nonexistent today. or you might say kiddywampous or hey look all the lines are on the port side--well maybe thats exaggerating ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed all the shakers last week , I kicked the speed up a a little to the 2.8-3.1 at the ball and got away from them and got a lot more aggressive strike from the mature fish as well , just a thought. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Hook Posted May 31, 2017 Author Share Posted May 31, 2017 Was at that speed Sunday and still threw 5 back. Slowed today in part to try something different and in part because of uphill troll. I wasn't seeing any good marks either. I don't think there were any mature fish in the area. Good thought, though, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
