Definitely winding down on the mature kings as they move north. We've been catching 10-15 fish per trip with a nice mix of coho, kings, steelhead and a few trout. The kings have been from 110-150ft. Coho get thicker as you move out to the blue colored water. Our Fishhawk temp probe has been critical as the late August winds have been shifting the water around. Our riggers have been 50-90 down with regular size spoons on the outdowns and a flasher/fly on the chute. Our high divers at 200-230 back and lows at 90-120 back have been taking mature coho and kings with meat rigs. Blood Run coppers in 200-400 lengths have been pulling regular sized spoons and flasher flys. Have a great remainder of the season! Black Pearl came out of the water today so that's a wrap on 2023 fishing for our crew.</p>

We've been taking fish from 100-140 most of the past week but the east and north winds have cooled the lake each day. We ended up fishing 70-80ft the past few days with catches of mature kings. 150-250 coppers with ace high plugs and moonshine spoons, divers back 120-180 on highs and 60-80 on lows have been most productive. </p>

Fish have been caught from 90 fow all the way to 200. We've been targeting 40-100 down with our spread. Riggers 70-110 down with spoons on the outdowns and flasher flys on the chute have been good. Blood Run diver back 210-280 on highs and 90-160 on lows with Big Weenie meat rigs have been top producers. Coppers in 225-450 lengths with a mix of flasher flys and spoons have been taking fish each trip. </p>

We have been fishing 90-150FOW targeting 50-90 down. Riggers with magnum moonshine spoons and big white paddles have been taking fish in low light conditions. Blood Run wire divers back 160-240 on highs and 100-140 on lows have been taking the majority of our kings. 300-450 coppers with flasher/flies and Big Weenie meat rigs have been good too. </p>

Catches are a mix of lake trout, kings, steelhead and coho. We are fishing 90-150 FOW. Fish are scattered throughout the water column. Blood Run wire divers back 160-240 on highs and 100-140 on lows pair with flasher flies and Big Weenie meat rigs have been taking fish. Riggers near bottom for trout. 250-450 coppers with a mix of spoons and flasher/flies have also been producing silver fish. Happy 4th!</p>

Catches are mostly king salmon of a variety of sizes. We are fishing 130-240 FOW. Downriggers and wire divers are set to target 50-100 down. We have had spoons on our outdowns. Flasher flies or meat rigs on our chute and divers. Spoons on Blood Run coppers of 100-300 lengths. Have a great holiday weekend.</p>

There is lots of fish out there. However the fish are scattered from depths of water from 50-220 fow. The salmon are being caught mainly in the top 50 fow with some coming down deep toward the bottom in the deeper depths. </span><div><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"><br /></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);">The rods that were working the best were 5 and 7 colors. 100, 140 and 200 coppers.

Fish are very scattered with fish being caught from 40ft to 240ft. Fortunately, the ones you contact seem pretty willing to bite. We fished 120-205ft landing 9 of our 18 bites. Spoons in Stingray and magnum sizes took the majority of our fish. 5-7 colors of Blood Run Leadcore and 150-250 coppers took fish. Blood Run wire divers back 170-190 on highs and 100 on lows took bigger fish with Spin Doctors and flys or Big Weenie Meat rigs. Traxstech riggers took a few rips with mag spoons.

We have been catching mixed bags of kings, trout, coho and steelhead. We captured 9 pink salmon during the month of July as well. Fish are being caught from 150ft right on out to the 270s. If you find a good troll and speed just let it ride on out. Traxtech riggers down 140-200 have been taking a complete mix of fish with Big Weenie meat rigs, paddles and flys and spin doctors/flys. Divers back 200-300 on highs and 140-200 on lows have been productive with the same rigs as riggers. Blood Run coppers in 250-450 lengths with a mix of spoons and Big Weenie meat rigs, and spin doctor/fly combos have been taking fish as well. </p>

We have been catching 7-15 fish per trip with mainly lake trout mixed with steelhead and a few kings. We've been fishing 120-170 ft of water. Riggers near bottom for trout. Divers back 330-450ft have also been taking trout. We've taken the majority of our silver fish on Bloos Run coppers in 100-275 ft lengths with small orange spoons and a few fish on meat rigs.

Finished 8-15 for the trip. </p><p style="color: #6e797f; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 8px 0px;">Corner riggers were the best for trout with spin and glows. 1 low diver bite for trout is the only additional trout bite we were able to get. With silver bites coming off the 175 and 225 coppers with standard spoons. </p><p style="color: #6e797f; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 8px 0px;">7/8/2022 We fished the same waters as 7/7/22 but the fishing was better north by holland. Had a hard time getting the fish in the boat. At one point we were 2-10 but finished strong at 6-17. </p><p style="color: #6e797f; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 8px 0px;">Corners again were good for trout. Also a high diver towards bottom with a pro troll and green fly worked up a trout. </p><p style="color: #6e797f; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 8px 0px;">Silver bites came off the 100, 125, 175 coppers.

We have been catching 8-14 fish per trip with the majority being lake trout mixed with steelhead and a few kings. We have been fishing 110-160, shallower in lower light and deeper as the sun is higher. We have been targeting lake trout with riggers on bottom and high divers back 300-400 ft. Our low diver back 140-200 have taken a handful of silver fish with big weenie meat rigs. Blood Run coppers in 150-450 have been taking a few steelhead and kings pulling spoons on the higher stuff and meat rigs on the deeper. Have a great Fourth!</p>
