Nice Catch Jack!!



Fished with John H. and his son, Jack. Temp in the morning was in the lower 40's and by noon it was in the upper 60's. There was no wind or waves. Started blading about 2 1/2 miles south of the harbor in 17 ft. of water and we only caught two walleye. We were fishing too deep of water for the blades and there was no wave action, so we decided to troll. Ran wiggle warts (rainbow was the hottest) 50 ft. behind the boards. Picked up 10 more and called it a day. The fish were between 19 and 26 inches. On the way out of the harbor we must have picked up some trash because the engine started to overheat. Stopped and checked everything, but found nothing and we never had any more problems. The trolling motor is still in the shop. We could have used it today.

Next Planned Trips:

  • 4/22/07 Fishing with Captain Daryl
  • 4/27 thru 5/01/07 Heading to Grayling to fish opening weekend of trout fishing with Joe and John.
