Fishing Report Glasgow morning 7/31/2023

[scrimmy]

Well I ventured out this morning and lets just say it was a little sporty for the 18' Legend. Went straight out to 67 fow to start. Not the most comfortable footing trying to steer boat, handle the rod and use the net all at once. Once I found the fish it was game on. Rigger with slider and the other rod was a dipsy. RRF's were the ticket this morning as they did not seem very interested in spoons. Dipsy was at #3 85 feet back and rigger was down 43 feet. Temp was 74 degrees top to bottom at 67 fow. Ended with around 14 or so and 6 for home. Had to keep a couple smaller ones and a big one as they inhaled the rrf's.

@scrimmy... So, what you're saying is you are well shook up to take the granddaughter swimming tomorrow?

You kept your word @scrimmy and went fishing today,even though the North-West winds were blowing hard enough to make it “bumpy” out there off Port Glasgow this morning. There wouldn’t have been a lineup at the Port Glasgow boat ramp this morning,because of those strong winds.
Great fishing for you again @scrimmy and I wonder how @Mickey Finn and @crappiequeen made out fishing off Port Glasgow this morning,for they had mentioned yesterday,that they would be fishing today,especially for rainbow trout. By the way @scrimmy what weight of cannonball’s do you use for down rigging off Port Glasgow? Thanks in advance. Enjoy your walleye fry.

I use 10 LB fish shaped unpainted weights Red. I also have 2 8 LB round balls for back up. It certainly was a little Sporty out there this morning. The farthest I was out from Glasgow according to my GPS was 9.6 miles. It took me longer to motor back to port safely than it did to catch all my fish. Better safe than sorry. When I did get back and loaded up the Legend the parking lot was well over 1/2 full of trucks and trailers But I did not see that many boats when I was out.

Thanks @scrimmy for your quick reply back to me.

Good luck in the morning Bob. This morning the dipsy out worked the rigger 2 to 1 and the Walleye's wanted the RRF's as opposed to any spoons. I had the dipsy on #3 with a ring and back 85 feet and it got nailed every time I put it out within a couple minutes. It had a Black and gold RRF on it. 67 fow was the best this morning.

Thanks Wayne for the tip I had planned on starting in 67 fow. Havea great day with your granddaughter.
