Harbor Patrol early version this weekend.  A batch of colder water rolled in and pushed the batifish into the pierheads in Muskegon this weekend.  Action was HOT all day long.  Morning trip on 8/9 resulted in slow action first thing and we got out of the fish.  After pulling lines and getting back in the action we finished up landing 7 of 8 fish.  Fish are big with many fish in the mid to upper teens.  Horseflies in Atomic Green Glow, Sea Mist and Seaweed all took fish when trailing 11" green E chip and also 11" double crush white.  Pearl plugs and Green glow plugs also took fish.

The afternoon trip was more of the same and then some.  Setting lines in the channel, our first pass out the arms had action right away at 2:30 in the afternoon.  Each loop out and in had bites.  After hooking somewhere between 23 and 27 fish we boated 11.  Short lines and BIG KINGS make for exciting action.  Break offs happen and crazy fish strighten hooks and break tackle.  Action came in batches as fresh fish came in to feed.  As the sun went down we headed in to lick our battle wounds.  The fish won some, we won some.  A great day for sure. 

Get out there while the action is HOT!
