Had a bizarre trip, where my normal lures just stopped working mid way through a trip. So I went through one of my flasher box and found a brand new 8″ Big Weenie Weiner with one of my favorite tapes the NFN. I put that flasher down paired with a spin n glow on the down rigger tracing bottom and boy did it work!!! It took our last 6 trout it was pretty amazing, I have a feeling it will work for years to come…

July Fishing Report Traverse City:
The girls rocked the bay this morning and trout!!! It was unseasonably cold and a little misty out… But that didn’t stop the girls, I found the water flipped from the other day we were able to fish Power Island by the “green can” on the reef. Lead cores and slide divers did the heavy lifting on the trout. All of your normal spoons would of worked as they were feisty had multiple doubles, speed was crucial we found that 2.4 was the number which was kind of different for these fish but it sure worked today! Traverse City trout fishing is hot! I will continue to post fishing report for Traverse City so stay tuned!

Frankfort Fishing Charters:
Frankfort has been producing some great fishing! We boated 15 king salmon through the morning Big Weenie Brand Meat rigs, Flasher fly, and a few spoon bites. Started at the Herring hole and nothing too exciting to start the day, I decided to troll out north and found two good pods of fish basically right in front of the pier head of Frankfort out over 180-200 feet. We were able to work those fish through the last half of the morning by our selves as the other boats were fighting it out on the bank. Pictured below is a new Big Jon Sports spoon made by Michigan Stinger, it was the best spoon in the water on my boat fished on a 250 copper. If you want to get out and experience Frankfort fishing charters give me a call now!
Traverse City Fishing Trip:
We had a unforgettable fishing trip this morning in Traverse City. The fish were biting from start to finish, we were able to play with techniques and spots and the fish kept biting. From 20 feet with planer boards to 200 feet of water bouncing bottom with meat rigs. Big Weenie Brand Spotted Dick was a stud early in the trip catching multiple nice trout. Once we slid in shallow the normal prospects kept getting bites Wonderbread, blue perch, green dolphin, Dreamsicle, orange crush. (Stinger, Warrior Lures, Dreamweaver)

Fishing the Manitou Islands:
Did a fun out of Leland fishing the Manitou Islands. We decided to target North Manitou. Had a slow start on the day but as we found them we really got them to bite good. We ended up with a dozen or so bites, mostly coming on meat rigs, a few on flasher fly, and two or three on spoons. Michigan Stinger UV Blue Dolphin took the spoon bites. Fished the northwest reef that extends off the island is where we found the bait and fish!!!

We had a good outing at the Traverse City Trout Derby today! Ended up in 3rd place in the event we had a great relaxed morning on the water. Lots of doubles and triples had the right trout that fit the slot limit by 8 A.M. we fished for steelhead the remainder of the day with zero success chasing after them. But that is ok Congrats to team “True Blue” from East Bay on the win!
Traverse City April Fishing Report
Fished West Grand Traverse Bay this morning: Fished Red 8 buoy north to Lee Point. Never turned around was prospecting just checking stuff out. Caught fish shallow as 10 feet and deep as 145. Fishing was good, short lead cores were key to success in the shallow water program. Best spoon by far was Greasy Chicken Wing Super Slim on a 3 color. Another top producer was the Blue Perch by Warrior a Flutter series on a 1 color. Went over deeper water just to check a few different times and caught trout near bottom on a Michigan Stinger Blue Dolphin close to bottom. The three times we marked a pod of fish and dropped the spoon to them deep it fired! We mostly stayed tight to the bank however keeping the boat in 30 feet of water seemed to do well for us. Looks to be a lot of fish again!!! Fishing is going to be amazing while the water starts to warm these fish are going to be jumping in the boat!!
