Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. In and out in less than 2 minutes and it only cost 5 bucks for a replacement plate.

I went out Saturday afternoon (11/22).....nothing.
One of my kids school teachers wanted to learn about handlining so we gave it a shot for a few hours. Water was dirty, temps around 38 outside the discharge and up to 48 in the discharge. One boat trolling raps got one and I talked to another person jigging and he had nothing.
Water out of LEMP was low, 1.5 feet and no bouys.

| Well I gave it a shot Sunday, more of a shakedown cruise for the boat than anything else. Launched at LEMP around 8:00 am. All the docks are in the water and one is a little too far in the water. Ran through the canals and out by Humbug. Once I got out on the river there was ice everywhere. I took it easy until I got up to Edison and trolled around there for a few hours. Around 11:00 am all the ice disappeared. Surface temps were around 36 degrees, water was dirty with lots of debris and a few dead ducks. Tried on the West side of Calf for a little bit and in front of Humbug. No fish. Off next week so I’ll try again then.

Feels good to be writing a handlining report with positive results.
Went out handlining 4/17 down in the channel. Didn't get my first fish until 9:30 pm and got the last one around 11:00 pm. Ended up with 3 and lost one, all males. Caught them on DT-158 and DT Rainbow Trout in size #11.

Took my kids teacher out handlining tonight for a do-over from a trip back in November. He got his first one and his first limit tonight. We ended up with ten, all west of the Catamaran. 7 of the fish came on a #11 Firetiger and 3 on a #7 Chartreuse Rap. I also lost 5 fish otherwise we would have been done in under an hour. Water was a little dirty and 46.5 degrees. Awesome night !!!!

Got an invite from Jerry Hinton to go pull some wire tonight with he and Greg Warsow. Jerry pretty much drove the boat and let Greg and I fish. We ended up with 10 and lost 2 all around the catamaran. Hot lure tonight was a #9 Orange/Gold Rapala. Water was dirty but the fish were cooperating. Even the silvers left us alone once it got dark. Jerry was even nice enough to let me dirty up his fish cleaning table instead of mine. What a Guy !!!
Hope it continues like this for May 8th, should be some nice baskets of fish brought in.

| West Side of Grosse Isle, down from the free bridge, across from the Edison Stacks.
