Had a long weekend in Muskegon running several trips. Friday we set
out after a 2 hour delay to wait for lightning to subside and see what the waves were going to do. We fished a couple hours and landed 4 nice fish, until most of the crew was turning green. We decided to call it. The trips was a donation to Safari Club International West Michigan Bowhunters for their annual fund raisor. not wanting to disappoint, I agreed to make up the remainder of the hours on Sunday afternoon. Saturday morning found me aboard SeaBee in Grand Haven as first mate. Action proved to be slow with the finicky fish in warm water with the changing weather the previous few days. We landed 2 of 4 bites on the morning trip. Saturday afternoon found me back in Muskegon running an afternoon trip. Action continued to be slow landing 3 of 5 bites with a flurry of action at dusk. Sunday monring I had high hopes the fish would be back on the rampage, but my luck proved slow again. Landing only 3 fish again, but one was a 15#+ monster brute that put up one heck of a fight. Sunday afternoon was make up time and with some decent reports in different water from the morning bite, I headed to new water to fish. Action again proved slow landing only 2 fish, but the seas were calm and the sun was shining. Reports that I received from friends seemed that if you happened across an active pod of fish, you could get some action, but miss the schools of fish and you were in for a long day. Seems I was on the slow end of the stick this weekend. Labor day weekend will see me in Ludington with the family with charters again on Tuesday. Have a great holiday weekend! |
