Made way to the #4 and with my wife and son set lines in 50 fow about 330 pm on Saturday. Trolled east to the doughnut and turned back in 55 fow pretty much washing lures and buring gas all the while wondering if my wife is questioning my abilities as a fisherman. Marked bait here and there but nothing biting. The one saving grace, possibly out of desperation, I dropped the rigger ball to the bottom after passing a school of bait near the end and took a single smallish coho. At least the skunk was off the boat! Wrapped up and headed in by 730pm.
Sunday I got up early and headed out by myself. On the water by 630am I started about the same area heading east. By the time I got to the doughnut the sun began to come out and I decided something had to change to get fish. Swapping out from glo to more flashy baits I headed north. First to go was a meat rig on a 200cu and in came a 12lb laker. Next was the rigger, 6lb brown 50 down 50 back, also brought in a small laker with some fire on the slider. Last fish was a 15lb laker on 150cu. I was back in the ditch by 11.
The coho on the 1st day came on a double sided glo stinger spoon. Brownie came in on a warrior blue dolphin spoon, mixed veggie on the slider for the small laker and mag green monkey puke for the biggest laker.

I saw you at the ramp Saturday as we were going down the ditch. I wasn't sure if you were coming or going. I had my wife and friend Gerry with me and we headed to Gary. It was slow there too. We went 2 for 3 both coho.
