  1. Sweet kings! The key is to start early! Great photos!
  2. On Tuesday, my boat was out of gas just right after I launched from mayers marina. I had a sick feeling in my stomach when this happened despite that your gas gauge showed you had enough fuel. I failed to listen to my instinct when I had a feeling I should have poured 10 gallons of gas just right before I took off. We were about a quarter mile away from the port. I was with my daughter and it was only ten minutes before we found help. Lo and behold, Rodmaster charter boat came and quickly brought us to the Mayers. Captain Pastore was very unselfish as he took his time away from the charter clients and brought us to safety. I cringed when I realize that the captain who depends on charter for a living have to stop and give up his time to ensure for our safety. I am very grateful to get this type of help right away. The lake was flat calm and we were never in any danger. Very fortunate for us. Not too long ago, I saw a father and son on a small boat just near the rocks on the jetty and I knew there was trouble when I saw the boy trying to put the boat oar on the rocks to prevent the boat from being smashed up. Of course, I was quick to offer help and towed the boat back to the dock. What comes around goes around. For our big pond we live in, we must keep our lake safe by helping out others in need. :yes:
  3. Fishing actions in the past three days has been sporadic. We have managed to land the browns yet its the king we wanted. Cant choose when you are begging for a king! You have to be patient and keep on trying different lures and head in different directions. Monday, August 31. East of I-Bay. Hot action was all about the brown trout. We fished40 to 60 FOW and landed four browns off riggers with spoons and cheaters. The leadcore was quiet. My daughter managed to land 18# salmon on a 400' copper with purple mag spoon. Later on, the lake trout took sushi fly off the riger parked 90 over 110 FOW. After the quiet lull, we motored out to 400-500 FOW to find more actions however the screen on the fish finder were void of bait and fish. I prefer to find out if there is any action at all instead of sitting on the sideline and wonder if the big boys were there. Tuesday, Sept 1 Repeat of the day before with set up in 40-60 FOW. Best action for the browns were in 60-75 FOW. All took spoons. While my daughter was fighting the brown, with about 50 yards away, a huge king breached out of the water with lamprey eel attached to it. Only if we had a go pro mounted on the boat, it would have been spectacular sight. Wednesday, Sept 2 I went out solo and managed to find brown trouts in 60 FOW. Nothing exciting except for the hot air and flies. Fished for few hours in the morning before I decided to head home to hit the pool. Good luck fishing the derby. Anthony
  4. Great report and excellent photos! Thumbs up!
  5. This is a very sad day for us. It was a heartache to see my buddy part away from her lady. I have rode on Chris boat countless times. She is a fish catching machine. If you know Chris, he cleans up his boat after every trip and it certainly shows. Evkerything on the boat runs perfectly! I cant believe it is only $19.9K. This is priced to sell very fast. Best of luck to both Chris and the next owner!

  21. Went out this morning with my buddy Barry Haywood and fished at 8 a.m. in east of I-Bay. Found decent green water between 140 andn 180 FOW today.The west wind along with SW wind seem to have pushed this same emerald green water that has been hanging around Braddocks bay since last weekend. Set up includes two riggers parked at 65' & 90' with spoon and sushi fly along with 400' copper. 10 color core did not produce any hits this morning. Went 4 for 4. All kings. Biggest was 23#, then just under 20#. Both took hits on Bob Fuller KOS spoon. Two smaller kings took sushi fly and 400' copper with NK monkey puke. The lake became bumpy after the north front blew through the clouds. Headed back in by noon. Good luck and safe fishing!
