Hot fishing in Grand Traverse Bay

Jun 10, 2023 • Traverse City
Fishing has been very good on West Grand Traverse Bay. Traverse Reelin Leland Fishing has had a great weekend fishing. On the morning of June 10th Dylan set out trolling the west side of West Grand Traverse Bay set three downriggers one with a cowbell and and spin-n-glow another with a spin doctor and a spin-n-glo, the center rigger was set with a spoon. Dylan and crew had caught a couple of lake trout on each of the spin-n-glo rigs, then the middle rigger took off screaming line out! It was a Spring King in the Bay. This King took a green dotted glow Beaver Lure spoon for a long ride, It was retrieved and landed after a great fight. Later that day Dylan set up the boat the same as in the morning and had a great time catching Lake Trout for his crew. The fish bit on all rigs as they went 9 for 11, what a great fishing trip!
