Muskegon 9/20

Had a crew of 4 on board for a trip Thursday. Started out with the channel program.  Stacked riggers with plugs, # ball down the chute with a plug and plugs on a diver on each side.  After two hours of doing laps we had two hits and zero fish.  I did witness several fish being caught in a half hour span at first light.  Vinnie kept picking away at them, but I couldnt get them to bite in there.  at about 830 I picked lines and ran out to the North and sat down in 130 fow.  I worked the waters from 15.5N to 19.5N and from 130 to 100 and back to 180.  We took 5 fish out there and missed one more.  4 kings and one steelie all 4-6#.  nice for the table, but not the greatest for fighting I guess.  Our two hits in the morning mud program were on Pearl Tomic on a rigger at 18 down and a yellow glow Orca on the # ball down the chute.  Outside fish spoons were best.  Two fish each on Lemonfire glow Nailer (76) on the 13 color and Bloody Clown Nailer (86) on the 8 color.  We also took a fish 100 down on the rigger with a big blue double crush spinnie with a SeaMist HorseFly and missed a shot on a double slick, white fishcatcher with an artic Ice HorseFly set on a low diver 160 back.
