Made the Right Choice Today

Fished with John and Doug E. Temperature this morning was in the lower 60s and when we quit fishing it was in the middle 60s, and it's the end of June. The wind was out of the west 20 to 25 knots and because we fished in close for perch the waves were about a foot. The water temp is 71 degrees. Started fishing where we left off yesterday and it produced no fish. We made some moves further into the swamp and we would catch an occasional keeper perch but the catching was very slow. After 4 or 5 moves in the swamp we went to the W buoy and started to catch some fish. We were fishing about 1000 feet south of the W buoy. Caught most of our fish here and after an hour we pulled lines because Doug had to go home. Kept 24 perch and most of them were pretty nice fish. We made a good call by not going walleye fishing. When the charter boats came in they said the waves were just like yesterday.
