Four person charter, twelve Lake trout, released another six, two Atlantic salmon,a Coho, a king and a steelhead to round off the slam, on top of losing at least twelve other fish that we never saw today ❤️❤️❤️❤️ this was Adeline's first Grand Slam 🫶


Greg booked with us today after a recommendation from another one of our favorite customers ( thanks Greg L.), and brought with him Tony, Don, and Logan.


We ran the same game as yesterday, running south then pointing north, we had (1) rod in the water when the skunk was knocked out of the box with a hefty lake trout to start our day 🫶 my mate Alex and I set lines and by the time everything was in, we had three more fish on the deck today 😎


We caught everything today 🙌 the first two Atlantics of the season hit the deck with a beaut of a steelhead all within ten minutes of one another, then a small king and a nice Coho graced us with their presence and a healthy garnishment of Lake trout for everyone on board 😏


We set up in 70' and pushed deeper and realized immediately that was bad... Alex got his first coffee break of the morning then, 🤔 nope, can't have that...I pushed Adeline back into the 70' zone and it was game on, singles, doubles and multiple triples kept these gentlemen busy the entire trip 🫶 and to say they all loved when the dreaded 12 color went off numerous times would be an understatement 🤪 you could hear an audible groan everytime the drag on that one went 🤣


Today we had it all, Adeline ran great, the weather was comfortable and easy to fish in, the fish were cooperative, it was the perfect storm of a wonderful trip ( not sure if the weather is gonna allow our trip tomorrow the same pleasantries 😬).


Thanks so much Greg for bringing your crew aboard Adeline today and allowing us to make some wonderful memories with you ❤️

 
 

Today was epic! John Bergsma with Fisherman's Digest and Jeff Miller owner of Traxstech came to Harrisville today and jumped on the boat to shoot footage for one of John's TV shows 🫶


I've been talking with John by phone to determine a good day to video, and boy did we pick a winner 😏 it was glass on Lake Huron today. Jeff came aboard to talk about his rod holders and downriggers that we installed on Adeline, turning her into a fish catching beauty on the water 😍


We had two directions for the show today, one was for Jeff to showcase and talk about traxstech and how any boat at any age could be transformed, and the second I asked if I could bring my mate Casey and his three sons on board to show fishing is a family event and fun for everyone 🤟


Miles, Corbin and Easton got to set lines, pick lures and reel in fish after fish today with an ending showcase of all three boys helping each other land a personal best for me and Adeline, a 20# Lake trout dinosaur 😳🙌 on a 12 color long line (550' behind the boat 😜) Casey netted the fish and John jumped into action giving closing credits for the show and then we were able to release the 30 year old fish back into the lake 🫶


We caught ten lake trout and a five pound steelhead today, but catching the fish was a small part. Jeff was able to show me how to maximize my boat for a more fluid /user friendly fishing platform, and John really got into helping and teaching the boys about salmon fishing, only strengthening Casey's strong parenting skills of raising our next generation of outdoorsmen 👊


John wasn't sure when the show will be aired, but he will contact me once he finds out after editing, and I'll post and let you know immediately as well 😊 Fisherman's digest airs on CBS sports, FOX sports, YouTube, Pursuit Outdoor channel and Wild TV Canada as well as being nationally syndicated.


Thank you so much, John and Jeff for allowing us with Fishcop Charters to show what Harrisville and the northern Lake Huron ports around us have to offer ❤️


 
 

Adeline's first fishing trip of 2025 did not disappoint 😍!!!


A five man limit of Lake trout in three hours fishing this Carolina Classic for the first time. 😍🫶 To say I'm in love with this girl is an understatement right now!


She preformed flawlessly. The 10 and a half foot wide beam let four rather large guys fight a triple simultaneously.


I was able to bring all four of my licensed first mates aboard for Adeline's shake down trip this morning ❤️ first time we've all been able to get together 🫶 ( the Coast Guard requires a mate working on a charter boat to be enrolled in a random drug testing program - all of our mates are enrolled in the Michigan charter boat association)


We had singles,doubles,and a triple today, they were hungry and active and ready to fight 🙌


Give us a call if you want to spend the day making great memories with your friends and family 🫶
