Port Sheldon 7/30 am.


Recommended Posts

Launched at 5:30 got to the pier heads and almost turned around.  Waves were much larger than expected given the buoy was report 1.3 footers at the time.  Stuck it out and took us 45 minutes to get to 90 fow.  Fished from 90 out to 150 and then turned back in and tried 90-110 fow.

Went 3/3 all kings.  Two about 3 pounds and one about 20 lbs.

Pulled lines at 9:30 am.

400 copper with double trouble took the big king.

400 copper with green jeans and downriver at 95 with white paddle took the two small fish.

Probably going to try again in the morning.  Hopefully it's not as wavy.

We also fished PS this morning. Started a little north in 95 FOW and trolled to 230. Lost a fish in 155. Start marking bait in 190 and hit a triple in 210. Ended 3-9, all salmon (4#, 7#, and 28#). Lost several other big fish. White fishscale Protroll w meat in a low diver out 200 went two times, MS 5 eyes on a 400 went twice and Kevin’s Mistress SD on a high diver at 300 went twice.

JDH and Wes - happy you both landed a 20+ pounder.  I have some buddies coming in next week and hope to get out and get one big one for them to land.  I was watching the buoy report all morning, 1.3' and thought I should have dolled out the $400 to fish Big Red.  Hate making that investment when the lake is rough and hard to fish.  Was it busy out there today or were you far enough north of the fleet?

There was quite a few boats but everyone was spread out. Several boats ran north beyond us, and we saw boats trolling west that we never saw coming back in. I don’t know how deep they went.

Fished PS again this morning. Ran to 180 and started on a SW troll. First hour was busy. We landed 2 trout and lost 4 mature salmon. Bites came 70-100 down: white fishscale Protroll w meat, Kevin’s mistress, MS bad toad. Only had two more bites after 7:00, but finally my son’s college friend finally landed an adult salmon. He was 0-8 over the past 2 days. Ended 3-7, 2 LT and 1 14# king.
