Friday morning my son Tom and his buddy Doug joined the crew. We tried Manistee again. Same story. High Temp was low 70s. Nobody doing any good on anything. We had a hit on a Candy corn silverstreak about 6:00 in the river and the reel froze and broke the fish off. It was a screamer too. A second fish leaped in the air and swam into a dipsy trolled back about 40 ft. and sawed it off. Hmmm. We had several charter captains tell us they went cold also. SSE winds 10 mph and 1 - 2 waves. Hundreds of boats in the harbor and the lake. Keith went home and the three of us went back out Friday evening. Nothing. Hardly marked a fish in the lake. Nobody caught anything from the piers either. We had some friends fishing the piers at Manistee all weekend and they said nobody caught any from there Friday either. If you told me I would troll for 2 full days morning and evening outside Frankfort and Manistee at the end of August and catch nothing, I would've said you were crazy.
