Huron Nov. 2 & 3

Beautiful weather on Saturday so we headed out of the river at a 25 degree heading and set lines about 13 miles offshore in 45 FOW. Marks were scattered - mostly 30 feet to the bottom. We trolled south using five lines on Big Boards and four dipsey divers - middle size with no rings.

The divers produced most of the fish and small (like 2 1/2" ers from Seaquest Lures) were best. Purple tape on both silver and copper blanks scored as well as Purple/UV. A few fish came on Bandits, Deep Hit Sticks and a new Rapala deep diver called Gold Digger. Chrome/Blue all of them trolled 150 back since we weren't turning. Extracted three limits, one gaspergoo and a white perch. Tossed a couple of dinks, but the rest were 19 to 25 inches.

With the brisk east wind we hugged the shore down to Vermillion and set up in 40 feet on a west troll towards Cedar Point. Dipsies with the same purple spoons were hot, but the deep diving GoldDiggers and Hit Sticks got some work. Fire Tiger colors tricked a couple of the bigger fish on Sunday. Had all the fish we needed by the time we were north of Huron staying in 40' most of the way.Attachment 8997Attachment 8998

Thanks for the good report. We'll be there tomorrow through Friday.
