Only second time out this year.launched at south end and trolled North about 4miles. Repeated several times on west side and then over to east side. Called it quits after 6 hrs and only one strike! Seems like the cold front

that went through the last couple of days might have been the culprit!

Jerrysz, I fished solo on 8-23. Put 4 in the boat. If that was you in the starcraft. On west side just south of Seneca pt. We past each other i was in the alumacraft. Caught my last laker off that point.

Mr Walleye, I had the 19.5 Blue fin with the canopy. Bottom is blue.

Name of the boat is "Fishing impossible" We tried all the spoons that

have worked other times and also ran spin doctors and flies. NADA

What was working for you? Jerrysz

[MR WALLEYE]

Hey, Jerrysz I don't think that was you then. I didn't notice a blue canopy. I run a bunch of different colored spoons and see what they want. Then switch to that. I doctor up some of my spoons with air brush. One i used Tuesday was flat white on bottom, flat black on top with green ladder bar. Anything shiny or silver on it works. I'm no expert so what works today might not work tomorrow. Maybe trolling a little faster or slower can make a big difference. I think we all have day's we get Nada.

Mr Walleye, Thanks for the tip. We tried a variety of spoons and depths from 30'

down to a 100' down but nothing with a white bottom. By the way, my boat is dark

blue with a white canopy. Tight lines. Jerrysz
