Fishing Report
10/9/11
Capt K's closes for the season on 10/16/11. See you in the spring!
Some of the BEST trolling of the year has been happening over the last couple of weeks. If you have not pickled your boat, give it one more try. Almost everyone limited out on Saturday and Sunday. Most fish were 2-3 year old salmon from 5- 14 pounds. Fish were found in 120-220 feet of water. The bite seems to go all day, as these fish seem to be on a big feeding binge. Spoons and flasher/fly rigs on downriggers from 70-140 feet down or long copper line rigs have been the best producers. Best spoons were Moonshine JJ Mac Muffin, Bloody Nose,and pearl Yuk spoons. 11" Pearl Flashers (the "Fridge") or Green Hot Spot flashers w/green or aqua flies were hot. Glow Needlenose spoons also worked wonders.
Good numbers of fish have been landed from the Algoma breakwalls this weekend (both salmon and brown trout) and some fish were caught in front of the harbor. The Ahnapee is full of 4 year old salmon right now. Remember, no night fishing upstream from the lakeshore.
Largest salmon in the Shanty Day's Tournament was over 25 pounds, with many fish over 20 pounds. The Shanty Days Tournament was a big success, both with boat and shore anglers. We had great youth participation this year and lots of smiles as the kids won tackle, tee shirts, gift certificates and lots of memories.
Lets all make an extra effort to take the kids fishing and pass on our wonderful sport to the next generation.
