After the morning storms passed, three of us headed out to Portage in search of steelies. Despite poor reports, sometimes you still just gotta go. Well, after a "19 fish on" outing last time out, was a "wash" this time out. Trolled for 4 hours and not a bump, simply washed our lures. If get some consistent south winds, there may be one last whack at em before the doldrums of August come!

Thanks for the report - hopefully we do get some of those sustained south winds for a few days soon!

After 4 hours of washing I'll bet those lures are darned near sterile!

Tried posting video of a previous outing but wouldn't post. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Was only like a minute long.

No, was video taken with my phone. Pretty cool action video of a steelie throwing a fit! It says press here to attach my video I selected from my library, then tells me to upload, but I get nothing. Maybe I can forward it to you in an email or text and see what you can do...or offer any other suggestions...

I have uploading video to the site disabled. It would take WAY to much disk space and one day I would wake up with a bill for $5k lol.

Have to upload it to youtube first, then you can just copy / paste the link into a message and it will set itself up nicely.
