First trip to georgian bay

[scottydog]

Thanks for all the info I recieved. I ended up going to balm beach area and had quite the adventure. Trolled for about 3 hours with a planer board and snap weight and nk. and downrigged with a nk mag monkeypuke. Got one salmon about 12 pounds. 54 feet down over 80 ft of water. Then the fun started. The motor died and wouldn't restart. 3 to 4 ft waves from the south were pushing us quickly toward christian Island. Anyway to make a long story short after several hours of starting and stopping we made it back to balm beach. Last time I go in my cousins boat.

Haha, at least you got a fish! You would have had to get the Ferry to give you a tow Georgian Bay is defiantly not somewhere you wanna be stuck when it's windy and wavey.

Wow...very glad to hear you made it back...crapped out motor on big water like that is certainly a recipe for disaster...nice job on the fish too!!
