Grand Haven NITRO Glow Bite!

[HitMan]

Fishing has been great out of Grand Haven! Limit catches of big King Salmon are being caught in only a few hours!!! The Northwest winds from earlier in the week cooled the water and there are schools of alewives and BIG Kings in the harbor and nearshore waters. The majority of the big kings being caught are from 25-70 feet of water near the harbor mouth and also in the Grand Haven channel at times. Downriggers 10-40 feet down, 2-7 colors of Lead Core and Divers 35-100 feet back have all been producing well. The NEW Stinger Nitro Glow Spoons have been fantastic first thing in the morning on dipsy divers. The Twister Stingray and Nitro Dolphin Stingray have been our two best Nitro Spoons early in the morning for the last few days. These spoons have been accounting for nearly half of our limit catches! After the sun comes up the Holly Christmas Stingray on 2 colors and 3 colors of Lead Core have been fantastic as well. These have been our three best spoons the last three days. The Pearl/Black Dot Tomic, Grinch J-Plug and Green/Glow J-Plug have also been working well near the harbor mouth and in the channel 7-17 feet down on downriggers. A few fish are hitting flasher/fly combinations as well. The 11 inch Pro-Troll HotChip White/Glow flasher with a Frosted Fern Rapture Fly has been producing a few fish as well.

There are also a lot of smaller fish offshore where the water begins to warm up. These catches have been smaller King Salmon, Coho Salmon, Lake Trout and Steelhead. The majority of these fish are being caught from 120-250 feet of water. Downriggers 40-95 feet down, 2-15 colors of Lead Core, 50-300 feet of Copper and Divers 50-150 feet back have all been producing well.

Get out fishing and enjoy this fantastic nearshore BIG King July fishery!!! Good luck and good catching to all!!!
