Windy but Nice



Fished with Captain Daryl. Temperature this morning was in the middle 50s and when we quit fishing it was in the middle 70s. The wind was out of the West at 12 knots and the waves were about a foot. The way the wind was blowing on shore I thought we would never make it out fishing. The water temp is 64 degrees. We started fishing straight out in front of the two stacks in 23 feet of water, and I do mean straight out in front of the stacks. When we looked on the GPS we were in the River Raisen shipping channel. 41 51 100 / 083 15 470. We trolled with spoons and dipsy's set at 90 to 100 feet behind the boards. We stayed right in this general area fishing the mud line. Took most of the fish on a spoon called the Pirate, black and dark purple combination with a copper back. We kept 12 walleye between 15 and 22 inches and threw back 10 walleye between 8 and 15 inches.
