Hey gang!
Latched on and headed North to Huron today I just love that water over there, fished it last Monday also.. Arrived at at around 2:00 PM. Nice easy going. Shot out N-N/E and just kept going. I marked my first spot I stopped I will have to get the numbers and see how far it really was., from the fuel gauge I would estimate 10-12 miles. Will have to look into that better though. It was pretty lonely out there.
Did run into some nets that I went around and went maybe another mile North.
Marked fish around 42 ft. in 51 fow. So Started with #1 Dipseys set at 3 and 65 back with a chartruse and a pinkish Silver Streak Spoons, have to look up the real color names.. Set the other with a 40 TT set back at 55. with a redish chrome Jr. Streak.
Travel speeds were 2-2.5mph
It didn't take long and I had a couple that would go maybe 16, and a couple smaller. I was marking them fish deep so I sent the chartruse rod back to 103 ft. from review of the Dipsey chart that should get me about 40 ft. Well about 100 yds and Bam good fish on. A nice 22 incher at least. I lost another soon there after, and caught several more just barely long enough. I let them swim. All of a sudden nothing for a spell.
Pulled in the TT 40 and switched to chrome bandit. Set at 35 back with 3.oz clip on weight and then another 80 ft. before offshore planer.
Didn't go far and the Bandit board was yanking real good " Oh Boy" another real nice one. Long story short. -----That chrome Bandit at the same setting put 4 of them in the box. all premium fish real quick. Got one more on the pink spoon set at 55. It was nice too.
Got the stuff put away and in order and headed back. Was on the road at 6:30. A Real good day.
Sorry not many posts from me this Spring. I have been a busy boy doing a lot of things that I had been putting off. But I have caught some fish... :)
