Damn Northeast Winds


Fished with Daryl. Temperature this morning was in the upper 50s and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 70s. The wind was out of the Northeast in the morning at 14 knots which made for a bumpy ride out and then it started to switch to the North and the lake laid down. Waves were 2 feet for the ride out and after a hour they were less than a foot. The water temp is 68 degrees and the water is very clean all the way from the harbor to Sputnik. Started fishing about 2 miles east of Sputnik trolling with the waves. We caught a few fish this way and then the lake laid down and we were able to troll where ever we wanted too. Started catching fish at 41 48 700 / 083 09 500 and we just worked that area. We fished with mostly jet 20s set at 85 feet back with spoons that had purple and green. Once we found the fish we caught them pretty fast. Except for the ride out it was just a great day of fishing. We kept 12 walleye between 15 1/2 and 23 inches.
