SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

Fished with my buddy Anthony D. (Pike Hunter); no luck with the shoreline brown bite so we moved out deeper to find the elusive green water. Found nice water 50' and deeper, changed to a laker program and hit a nice 10-12# laker on a smaller Hammerhead cowbell/spin n' glow set-up. Next hit was on a 5 color core w/ a J-11 orange stick - lost the fish quickly. Final hit was a very nice king - around 15# on a NBK parked on a rigger at 45'. All in all we had a great time - as always it's nice to crush a chinookie!!!

Good luck to all - special thanks to Anthony for a great day on the water,

Not bad for 4 to 5 hours of fishing!! Good to see the chinookie's of I-bay and Rochester area.

Nice going. We were out in the same area. Had two hits in the morning on the shoreline but nobody home by the time the rod was up. Worked out to 70-90' for that color change. Marked lots of fish but never got them to go.
