Rod Boss Sportfishing 7/20

 The lake flipped and a full moon  the water inside is colder than the water out deep. You can’t always fish the pier heads and expect to be productive.  However when the lake flips it is a good opportunity to try something different  

We fished the pier heads today.  White body moonshine spoons Happy meal, black pearl, green jeans, dirty white boy, mean jeans, solid glow, green jeans half slice, helmet, raster goose were all good spoons.  On 2,3,5 colors and 50,125,140 coppers.  Small diameter divers on 2 diver rods. 

We went 20-30  with our 4 man limit.

 Fishing is about as good as it gets.  80-90 fow of water to start and then maybe sliding out deeper if the fish move out.  Spoons on coppers 125,150,175,200,225 have been really good.  Happy meal, dancing Alwewife, U of M froggy, Shelly snack and green pirate have all been productive  high divers out 80-150 with meat rigs and low divers out 70-90 with spinny and paddle flies have been very productive also.  Riggers with spoons down 35-60 and chute down to bottom have been picking up a few trout here and there.  Start early as the bite shuts down on the sunny days.

Black Pearl 4th of July Week

 Solid fishing out of Holland this past week despite the lake rolling.  Catches of king salmon, steelhead and lake trout are the norm.  Fish have been scattered from 75ft-160ft with the majority being caught 30-70 down.  Riggers 40-60 down with spoons and paddles have been decent.  Divers back 160-200 on highs and 90-110 on lows with a mix of meat rigs and flasher flies.  150-400 coppers with spoons on the higher gear and flasher/flys on the deeper stuff.  Happy Fourth of July!
