Holland 6/21 am Solo 2-2

[SeaFoam]

Lake was flat and temperature pleasant.  Lines in a little after daybreak. 
 

6:45 am: 5 lb king, rigger down 100 ft, 130 fow, meat rig.

8:15 am: small lake trout(released), same rigger down 105 ft, meat rig, 131 fow. 
 

Fished 120-150 fow.  Marked the most fish, by far in 130 fow. 
 

Pulled lines early at 9 am due to Father’s Day plans. 
 

What didn’t work: 300 copper with various size and color spoons. No hits on flasher flys.

Always nice to get a Father's day fish! This crazy weather really pushed the thermocline down.

Yeah.  Seems like I haven’t been out in forever.  I was running old school this morning just using the buoy for water depth temperature.  My first mate (me) forgot to charge my probe.

I hadn't been out for awhile because of the weather that we had also. So, to entertain myself I started clearing some bushes and miscellaneous weeds to get something done during this terrible weather cycle. I woke up the next morning with my right wrist swollen up 4 sizes and tremendous pain. Evidently, something punctured my glove and it wasn't a FISH HOOK! I couldn't even move my wrist, so off to the doctor I went. I've been out of commission for over a week. I feel like a one arm bandit.
It will be at least another week before I can probably launch my boat by myself. The antibiotics are finally start to improve my situation, now if the fish would do the same thing.


No good deed goes unpunished.

Tough stuff Littleboat.  Glad to hear you’re on the repair!

Ed, hope the meds get you back on the water soon.  I also checked my Log and I have not been out since 6/7 for the most part due to the high seas.
