Captain Ed Stowe of Stowaway Charters reports from Ludington:

The water has turned to ice at the point from the hard blows of the past week. As the water cools we are taking fish on the 3 cores and 5 cores with plugs on them. Almost any moonshine early, with the Blue Jackel and Mongolian Beef doing the best for me lately, and the Silver Hoard ace highs, Double Glos and Yellow Splatterbacks on the cores and coppers are taking fish. Blue Bubble spindoctors with Blue Fairway flies and later 11″ White paddles with Moo Moo meatrigs are a good bet either on the riggers or the wire divers. The fish are also in Pere Marquette Lake and in the Pere Marquette river in good numbers. In Pere Marquette Lake it doesnt matter what you use as long as it is a J-plug or j-plug type bait, with Chrome Redhead and Green Gloes being the favorite colors. In the river #5 spinners, HotnTots, Glo Thundersticks and PingaTees are good bets. Good Fishin…..Capt Ed

Captain Ed Stowe of Stowaway Charters reports from Ludington:

The fishing is on again off again as the water just keeps getting warmer and warmer. The surface temp is 75 degrees and the break is down at 65 ft. We need some north or east wind to cool things down a bit. It has been a struggle the last week or so. Almost any moonshine early, with the Bloody Nose and Mongolian Beef doing the best for me, and the Silver Hoard ace highs on the cores and coppers are taking fish. Mountain Dew Spindoctors with Seaweed and later 11″ paddles with meatrigs are a good bet either on the riggers or the wire divers. Good Fishin…..Capt Ed

Captain Ed Stowe of Stowaway Charters reports from Ludington:

The fishing is really heating up at Ludington the past couple of weeks. The action is spread from the 5900’s up to the 0800’s. The break is down at 75′ but we are taking fish from 60′ down to 125′. The early bite just gets better and better. Almost any moonshine early, with the DO DE K and the Raspberry Carbon doing the best for me, and the Silver Hoard ace highs on the cores and coppers are taking fish. Spindoctors with Green Crinkle and later 11″ paddles with meatrigs are a good bet either on the riggers or the wire divers. Good Fishin…..Capt Ed

Captain Ed Stowe of Stowaway Charters reports from Ludington:

The fish are on the bank from the 00’s to the 0800’s. 80′ to 110′ to start out and then out to 140′ to 200′ as the day progresses. Moonshine and spindoctors early and then switch to meat after the morning bite. My best lately has been white spindoctor with a pickeled sunshine 100′ down on the shute rigger, DODEKAY 80 down on the outdown. I have been running meat on the wire divers starting at 125 on one and 150 on the other. Green splatterplugs and Grey Ghost on the 300 copper and on the full cores have been taking fish. There are also some Coho and steelhead straight out from 70′ to 125′. Good Luck to all in the tournament Good Fishin…..Capt Ed
