Holland/Saugatuck 7/25 PM - sweet sixteen (for 20)

[2MD]

ran south and setup just north of Saugatuck to get out of the pack in 125fow

some of the best bite I've seen in recent years

fish were down in that 80-110 like I suspected (thanks SeaFoam) so ran just 8 rods

16for20 

all action was mainly in that 129-134fow doing a SSW troll with ground speed of 2.3

well after dark as we faded in we added more in as shallow as 95fow though

last bite was at 10.40pm

every rod and lure took a fish and some were picked on more than others - biggest challenge was keeping just 3 or 4 rods in because so many triples etc

here is what worked in a crude quick summary:

copp350 mag moonshine flounder pounder

copp300 mag moonshine greenjeans

both riggers with sliders mag moonshine 82 down and 100 down 

both deep dipseys braid out 150 and 190

copp250 with blue ladder size 4 plug joined party a couple times after dark

copp200 chrome red head pluh size4 went in pitch blacl at 10.20pm

 

PUG has has encountered more silver fin though he hardly can remember when...
