Just Like the Good Old Days


Fished with Uncle Dan and Dwayne, Joe cancelled last night. Temperature this morning was in the upper 50s and when we quit fishing it was 72 degrees. The wind was out of the west northwest at 15 knots and the waves were 2 to 3 feet, pretty bumpy but not too bad.) On August 28, when we got back from salmon fishing the guys took the GPS and the fish finder out of the boat and I did not know this. Went down to the boat today and we had no electronics to help us find fish and fish locations, just like fishing in the 80s. Started fishing 2 miles east of the E buoy (I think) and we only caught some small perch. Made the move out to Sputnik and we fished on the south side of it. Started to catch some fish- they were not very large, but at least we caught some fish. Stayed there for the rest of the trip because of the wind and waves. Kept 58 perch, they were not very large, but at least we caught some fish. Back at the cleaning station Dave came back with a pretty nice catch of perch that he caught in the swamp. From here on out we will be fishing in the swamp.
