Windy But Fishable



Fished with Captain Daryl. Temperature this morning was in the mid 60s and when we quit fishing it was only in the lower 70s. The wind was out of the West Southwest 15 to 25 knots and the waves were 1 to 2 feet with the occasional 3 footer. The water temp is 76 degrees. We fished out in front of Sterling State Park in 19 feet of water (41 55 400 / 083 16 400). We trolled jet 20s set at 55 feet back on one side of the boat and mini disc's set at 80 feet back on the other side of the boat. Daryl got to use the jet releases for the first time today and he definitely likes them. We made one pass from the rocks in front of the Sterling State Park heading towards Stoney Point, made the turn in front of Detroit Beach and we had our fish. Kept 12 walleye and one nice perch for the day. Had 6 walleye that were under size and two of those were only 8 inches long. The wind was blowing pretty hard but we kept it to our backs for most of the troll.
