SoHa 9/17

[dan agnello]

Haven’t been reporting here much this summer; maybe bc there is a SoHa report group on FB.

Like I’ve seen for Holland, Muskegon, etc fall fishing for 2-3 yr olds is very good. Same for South Haven.

Sunday we were only 2-5 from 140-200’; Monday was good in 80-120; today it was 68-87’..

Thermocline at our buoy in 68’ was 49’ down; thus we ran riggers 45, 55,  65, dipseys 80’ and 90’ lengths of line out, 150, 200, 250 and 300 had hits.

Fished a little south right by the buoy.

All fish caught in 68-87fow except a small steelie in 120 on a 200.

Ended up 8 for like 12. 4 yr old  15+lb female king full of eggs, 3 small kings, small steelhead, a small coho and two fat sheephead.

Wonderbread mag spoon, mag Moonshine RV wonderbread and mag NBK glow took fish. No hits on green #5 with bk ladder back glow J Plug nor dragon slayer Pro King flasher W/pickle sunshine fly.

We fished mainly very near the buoy and a little north.

1’ or so waves.

Good to hear the fish are still around.  Thanks for the report!

Certainly, it would be nice to have your reports back on this forum. We miss your commentary!

Thanks, will try to make sure I’m back on here on a regular basis. Have been busy aka new left hip on 7/1 and  selling our SoHa house and moving to new senior housing in Holland from 8/13 to 9/8.

And, worst of all is I sold THE Reel Woman and most of her fishing gear to my friend Brian in Muskegon. Was going to sell to him next fall when i turned 80, but selling now helped the cash flow.

I have a few rides and great fishing report intel from people in SoHa and Racheal there has real close intel on what charters and others are doing bc she first mates for a few charters. Will be fishing and reporting on fishing trips on other boats aka w/Brian on my old boat next season and future SoHa, etc  trips.

I have one ride lined up in Holland where we now live and if anyone would like to invite this old fishermen out here, SoHa, SJoe, Grand Haven, Muskegon and my bucket list Pentwater that would be awesome.

Thanks
