Hot Fishing in July


Fished with captain Daryl, Mark and Doug S. Temperature this morning was in the middle 70s and when we quit fishing it was in the upper 90s. The wind was light at 5 knots out of the southwest and there were no waves. The captain turned on his wash down hose and set it on a fine mist and put it in the rocket launcher, that way we had a fine mist on us all day, which sure did help. Started fishing at 41 47 900 / 083 06 900 and we never left the area. We set jet 20s at 95 feet on one side of the boat and 100 feet on the other side. The fishing started off pretty slow but as the day progressed the catch rate picked up. Had to weed through a lot of sheep head and white perch but that just kept everyone busy. We also ran some of the big dipsy's set at 1 1/2 and back 49 feet off the side of the boat and they caught a few walleye. Caught 26 walleye and had only one throw back that was 14 1/2 inches.
