Today was long and active. Up at dawn and out to the lake to wet a few lines.
Four lines in the water and...FISH ON! Great, so soon. This is going to be good. Then, double header! OK, this is going to be interesting. Of course, Kathy is still in the berth getting her beauty sleep. Then, oh-oh...TRIPLE HEADER! Um, dear I think it's time to get out of bed. Then, oh shit!!!! number 4 on the line...a quad! Well, we did what we could and managed to catch two of the four. All in all, we boated 5 fish today out of 9 bites.
A nice steelhead
King Salmon
Today's take. 4 salmon. 1 steelhead.
After cleanup, we had a lunch and headed downtown for the fine arts show. There's always a trinket or two to interest Kathy.
Now to uncover the dinghy and go clean that up. Warm, sunny and dead calm. A great day for a cruise in the dink. Beachcoming at the outer harbor.
I cleaned the dinghy from several weeks of sitting idle.
Then...ahhh! First time in the water this year. Surprisingly warm although outside the harbor,Lake Michigan is still chilly.
Ludington Pier Light.
We take a quick trip into the municipal marina to see what is happening there...it's pretty quiet, actually. Gas is $3.99 a gallon. It's been awhile since it's been in that territory. As you can see from the flag, not a breath of air.
Municipal marina.
Then back out into the harbor and a short ride to Harborview.
The admiral is bushed. Not sure how active she'll be the rest of the evening.
A great summer day.
