Good day to everyone! 

We launch out of Michigan City at 5:40 am and headed straight out to 75 fow and shut down at started setting up and caught our first fish in 82 fow. Coho.  Caught another fish at 88 fow. 92 fow we had 3 on and got 2. Kept trolling out and turned around at 115 fow and trolled into 90 fow then turned back out and worked 92 to 105 fow.

We went 15 for 30. All Coho and most were 3 to 5 pounds. A faster troll speed was best. 2.7 to 3.2. Anything slower and we didn't get any hits.

Dodger/fly was good on dipsys,  60 and 120 coppers, 240 copper with mixed veggie and downriggers 36 to 60 foot down worked but not as good as the coppers.

Ended up fishing small schools as the sun came out about noon.

Had several triples but only getting 2 of the 3 in because I not able to help.

Got our last fish at 1:40 Central time.

Lake as almost flat when we ran in.

We didn't target lake trout but did run a blue Dalfin a couple feet off the bottom but never took a hit.

We did make schools of baitfish in 90 to 99 for of water and every coho had alliwives in its stomach.

Fish were scattered compared to last Saturday but we got our    

Never had any big fish on.

Awesome day. Sounds like a lot of action. Can seem frustrating losing fish but I look at it like double the fun on the hook ups and fights.
