young_one Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 (edited) As many of you know I'm super jet lagged from my recent trip to China, I decided to take advantage of my 3AM wakeup schedule. Went fishing with fellow member Kevin, the forecast was calling for 25km winds and light shower. A bumpy ride to our spot and the bite was on fire starting 8-9ish, at the peak period I had missed multiple consecutive bites within seconds. My 30LB byers anchor really held nicely, but a pain in the @ss to pulled it backup for my anchor boy. Depth: 75~80 FOW Lure: William 1/2, Bad Boy, Jigging Raps Colour: Anything green! Weather: Overcast Surface Temperature: ~41F Notes: Saw quite a few dying smelt on the surface. To my surprise we didn't see anyone jig up a Laker, I had my trolling stuff ready but didn't want to give up the hot whitie bite. I've always had good luck with William W60 Silver Electric Blue, behind a dipsy diver. The live-forage Smelt looks real good to match the hatch. Anyone has recommendation for laker trolling lures? We had over a dozen fish landed and many lost! Edited May 18, 2011 by young_one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misfish Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Anyone has recommendation for laker trolling lures? Silver Fox flutter spoons.Assortment of colours. Ones that worked for me were the Orange prizm on Silver,light blue aswell. Watermellon is a good go to also. Expect alot of herring hook ups.Crazy things will hit anything.1.2-1.5 mph I cant see the pics,but great report. If I get my tuck back by the weeked,I,ll be heading over that way.

Victor Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Nice work guys! Open water whities! I'm kinda jealous, even if I have my boat fixed it won't be able to handle big water like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

young_one Posted May 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 (edited) Well done boys! That looks like Sibalds launch. I heard they were doing some work on it, how is the luanch? Maybe I missed any changes to the ramp, but I know for sure they made the dock much nicer with new planks and heavy duty cleats.
