Fishing continues to be spectacular in Muskegon. Fishing 5 trips in 3 days we totalled 86 for 114. Starting Friday 9/9 we were 24 for 28. 22 bites were on Horseflies. SeaMist, Artic Ice, and Lil' Boy Blue were rockin. Harvinator spoon and Watermelon Frost each took 2 bites as well as a green plug. Saturday morning we sat down on the same fish and proceeded to land 21 of 31 bites. More steelhead in the mix and more of a spoon bite. Same spoons as Friday as well as Superior Sunset, Sunfire, Lemon Ice, Lemon Lime/Orange Twist all taking fish. All of the same flies had fish. Saturday night was the same thing, finishing 10 for 18 bites. Same exact program. SeaBee was rockin on the 13 color. Sunday morning aboard Code Blue was more of the same going 14 for 18. Sunday evening back on my boat finishing 17 for 19. Same exact program. Add in LemonFire Glow with a painted gold cup and Superior Sunset really rocked on the high diver 100 back. Most of the lures I never took off the rods all weeekend. There are plenty of fish in the channel, but with the crazy crowds and moody fish, I ran offshore every day and deckloaded. The steelhead are big, with lots of them in the 10# class. they seem to be way out off the shelf in 300+ and more in 360 where the bottom stops getting deeper. The kings were below them for the most part and liking the flies better. Capt. Paul Kik |
