As usual I will apologize for my lack of posts these days. Perhaps there will be a time when keeping this blog up will make sense in my schedule again, until then I will post only when I have time.
I made it up to a favorite harbor mouth in Wisconsin this week after work to see if any of the big kings were in. They are, but not in great numbers yet. The kings are huge this year, I haven't heard of one under 15 pounds yet. I hooked one and proceded to hold on for dear life as it took me for a drag screaming ride up and down the rocks. It eventually snapped my line on the rocks near the wall, easily a 20 pound fish, if not more.
It hit at around 10:45 at night, and hit a green/glow K/O wobbler on a steady retrieve near the bottom. If you put in the time, you'll get your fish this fall. Look for them to concentrate around harbor mouths and become more active when the water temp drops below 60 degrees. Sorry there are no photographs of the fish I didn't land, I am still playing the fight over and over in my head. I'll be out this weekend, in the Kayak if wind allows, on shore if it doesn't. Look for me, and say hello if you happen to see me.
