Huron Nov. 2 & 3

[Bnature]

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.
