Neue Oak Creek Angelberichte

Had a great trip yesterday morning with Bill, Mark and Bill. They definitely put the screws to the browns jigging. Total was 12 for ???? Big fish was a 18lber that decided to eat a down rod with a spawn sack. I still have a couple of openings for both the boat and river.

Who would have thought the boat would be hitting open water before February. Everything is working as it should and the brown trout are cooperating. I have both jigging and trolling trips available. If youd like a trip send me a message.

As the water has finally started cooling down, the fidhing has gotten better each day. Jigging lake trout has been the primary catch with the occasional jumbo perch and burbot mixed in. Looking at the forecast, ill be in the boat well into the new year. If you’re interested in a trip send me a message.

Had a fun morning on the water yesterday with mark and his crew. We had a really good number of bites but only 6 wanted to stick. But im definitely not going to complain when 4 out of the six were kings that went 22, 18, 12& 11lbs. Time to break down thd boat and get my inland stuff in it for the next two trips.

As I take a break from switching the boat over from Lake Michigan to inland here’s the weekend recap. Saturday- the Kenosha Classic which I should rename to my struggle bus tournament. After not being able to pre fish two days prior due to a nautical north wind I went into it pretty blind. Knowing there were kings in Milwaukee I decided to point the @skeeterboats_official north and make a 35mi run. Once we got up to Milwaukee it didn’t take long for the first two cohos to hit the deck then after pulling the hooks on a king with the 300’ copper we rode the struggle bus the rest of the day picking off one here one there. It seemed like we missed the king bite by about 45mins. Overall we finished 8-14. But that’s tournament fishing sometimes when you full send a Hail Mary you’ll connect and sometimes it misses. Congrats to Jim Muller and crew of the Stormtrooper for a massive box of 164lbs! Now after taking a beating what does a stubborn finlander do? Head right out to where the winning box came from the next day. Sunday evening took Tina out and we had a steady flow of bites with two kings, 1 laker and 5 cohos and some chunky ones at that. Flasher flies have definitely overtaken spoons this week and Atommik meat rigs really have been chiming in. The wind is looking good the rest of the week. If you’d like a trip give me a call or send me a message

Took a quick run to get some fish for the smoker tomorrow and start crossing water off for the big pond brawl. Tina started it off with a very nice steelhead followed up by a low teens king followed by a tubby laker that wanted to act like a king for a bit. Overall we ended up keeping 5, tossed two lakers back and had one drive by. I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable Memorial Day!
