Last couple weeks

Finally made it up to Lake Michigan yesterday and trolled all day and only had I hit. It was around noon and I had a steelhead take an SOG spoon at 60' down in 160 fow. He made it to the surface in 2 seconds jumped once pulled the line tight, the drag wasn't letting out line so I tried to loosen it. The fish jumped again and when I started to tighten the line the fish was gone.
Things to remember: Check drag on all reels periodically through the day especially in the morning.
Anyway here's some pics from the last couple weeks. The first pics are from LM then the rest are from Tippy.

lures washed and ready to go for next time



Well one more week and then it'll be hunting season. I'm going to try and get up to LM again next week and try for some Kings again. If I can't go "Oh well" hunting starts in a week. : )
