Chilly Willy


Fished with Captain Dan. Temperature this morning was 27 degrees and when we quit fishing it was in the middle 40s. The wind was out of the northeast 10 to 15 knots with waves 1 to 2 feet. The water temp is 49 degrees. Once we scraped the frost off the windshield away we went. Today was definitely a cold one on the lake. Started fishing in the dumping grounds in 14 feet of water and we never had to move, which always makes for a great trip. The bite was pretty steady until the wind switched and came out of the south around 10 knots for at least a half an hour. We had the waves pushing from the northeast and the wind blowing from the south. The boat did not know which way it wanted to go so we did a lot of floating around the anchor. Once everything got back to normal we started to catch some fish again. We only caught perch today and we kept 60 of them. The season is coming to an end just when the fishing is at it's best.
