You will find that most traffic out of White Lake is not local traffic. It is mostly people that are there for a few days camping or such.

The rest of the poeple don't have computers...hehe...before anybody gets to cranky I lived in montague from about ages 4 till 23....

I will also be out there on Saturday.
I have a 21' Cruisers it is a white boat with a big red stripe. The name of the boat is Half Dozen. We'll be on 68....

Probably run out to deeper water at some point in the morning. But will have to wait and see what water temps are doing first.

Thanks for the reply Sixshooter. I'll keep an eye out for you and be on 68. I'll be in a 21' red Larson. Ben

I'll be out there as well....I have a 22 foot Trophy with a hard top. Handle is Pocket Kings and I'll be on 68 as well. Probably won't hit the big water till Sunday.

I'll also be out there this weekend, first time of the season. 21' C-Dory aka "Bobeye." We're out there all summer, got a place just around the corner from the channel. We'll be on 68, good luck to all.

Forgot to mention, my handle is Highlander. I plan to be out there all weekend.

Hopefully this warm weather will turn the fish on!

Thanks

I'll be out there this weekend, probably both days. Boat name "Jafeica" 25' ChrisCraft hardtop: http://www.fishous.com/boat/P9171687sm.JPG

I hear the fishing earlier in the week was out farther, but it's going to depend on the water temps. Earlier this week the water looked warmer, but now it's looking like some colder water has moved in, but the sat view might be off because of the cloud cover. http://www.coastwatch.msu.edu/michigan/m4.html

Right now I'll probably drop in at 150 FOW unless the sat chart comes in better tonight, which I'm expecting it will.

I'll be on CH 68. Probably won't hit the big lake until 7am, depending on when I can drag the GF out of bed. :)

My friend went out on a charter out of GH this AM. The limited in 3 hours in 250 FOW. Fish were scattered from 40 to 150 ft down.

A long ways...

[Sixshooter]

out of white lake 250 is probably only about five miles....

What temps are you looking for?

The Tech Rally will be out there this weekend too. Standing by on 68.

[Sixshooter]

well we did pretty okay it sounded like. We boated 8 fish tossed back a 12" king. Kept 5 Kings 2 Steelies and 1 Coho.

Most of our fish, well all except the coho came in 225 to 270 FOW...from surface down to 100' on a rigger. No realy color pattern except we thought blue was the ticket...Then purple got hit and then oragnge...

The coho hit in about 189' of water 80 down on a rasberry dolphin mag spoon.

Hope to make it up there at least one more time this weekend.

Boat trouble kept me off the water this weekend!:sad: Sounds like I missed some decent fishing. My brother-in-law was happy though, I spent more time helping him build his deck instead of being on the water...

[Fishous]

Well, I got out there saturday to 180' fow, got 3 rods down before the engine stopped. It didn't seem to want to idle, so I pulled up and ran back. We grabbed our little boat and went bass fishing, had a good weekend anyway.

What temps are you looking for?

This is my first season with a sub troll, so I haven't really patterned what temps I'm looking for, but I think 46-48 is good.
