Caught some nice kings at the port of Frankfort this past Saturday. Had a blast fishing with my two boys and my dad. Lots of kings and coho's on deep riggers down 100-120 feet on the counters in 200fow. Dipsey divers were set at 200 back. All fish caught on herring rigs and flashers. Check out the pics:

First fish of the morning, tag teamed!

Stopped for a noon lunch break at the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes. Swimming, dune climbing and roasting weenies!

In total, we landed 13 salmon between Friday night and all day Saturday. We slept in Sunday morning and came home.

This coming weekend is the Benzie Frenzy fishing tournament and I'll have a more detailed report with pics again!
