Saginaw Bay verses Saginaw River 06/11/06

[baydog2]

Hit the Bay this Sunday morning and trolled for 1 1/2 hours without a bump. Trolled meat and plastics from 12 to 18 FOW in front of Gambill's. Went to the River and casted for Smallmouth caught maybe dozen up to 17 inches. Started trolling back to the Zilwaukee rampabout 1:00 and picked up 3 eyes, 1 northern, couple more bass, 1 cat , and a lot of sheeephead. The eyes was 14.5, 15.5, and 18 inches. Trolling hot N tots along the drop offs next to the river channel try to stay in 12 to 17 ft.

Nice salvage job Bay Dog. One thing about the river, she really has to blow hard to ruin the day. ;)

Good job BayDoggie ! Gonna have to show "Cat Lady" how to hold those 'Eyes like a Bass:yikes: . Salvaged the day yesterday (after yard duty) - Water Wolf and I grabbed the waders and hit the Flint. Got some Smallies and a couple of "cocky" Rockies. Bob

Just might take your advise this weekend Scotty, as it is only about 17 minutes away. Just got to fish it more and get to know the lake a little more. Scotty are they hitting all day long or certain parts of the day are best? Also what FOW has been the ticket?
