Bumpy and Weedy

Fished with Captain Daryl and Mark. Temperature this morning was in the middle 60s and when we quit fishing it was in the upper 70s. The wind was out of the northeast 16 to 19 knots with waves 2 to 4 feet. After 3 hours of fishing the wind started to lay down and so did the waves. The water temp is 76 degrees. Started fishing in front of the two stacks heading into the waves. We ran jet 20s at 55 and 65 feet back. With the wind and the waves it was hard to set lines but we managed. Picked up about four fish and then we turned around and went with the waves to our backs. Picked up some more fish this way, so we made the turn and headed back into the waves. Picked up most of the fish around 41 52 040 / 083 16 360. The next thing we knew the weeds started arriving and the fishing went down hill. At one point every line had some weeds on it. Once that happened we called it a day. Kept 9 walleye.
