We Lost Our Touch



Fished with Captain Daryl. Temperature this morning was in the upper 50s and when we quit fishing it was in the middle 70s. The wind in the morning was out of the northeast at 15 knots which meant we had 3 foot waves for the ride out to the Turn Around Buoy( 11 mile ride ). About 10:00 AM the wind laid down to 5 knots and so did the waves. We just dropped the lines and the first fish was a 11 inch perch and we thought we were in for a good day. Well, it was all down hill from there. We moved a couple of times in this area without much more luck so we went to the north side of Sputnik and only caught a few more fish. Decided to go back to our hot spot and we caught a lot of white perch, sheepshead and 4 more perch. It was getting late so we called it a day. Kept 17 perch between 8 and 11 inches.
