Still Fishing in Shallow

Fished with Captain Daryl and Mark. Temperature this morning was in the upper 60's when we started fishing and it was in the upper 70's when we quit. The water temp is 64 degrees. The wind was out of the north northwest less than 10 knots with waves less than a foot. Just a beautiful day to be on the lake. Started fishing by the S buoy trolling junior thunder sticks set at 65 and 85 feet behind the boards. Started catching some fish off the 85 feet set up so we switched both sides to 85 feet. Caught the first four fish pretty quick and then it slowed down. Started trolling towards Turtle Island and we started catching some more walleye but we also caught a lot of short walleye. We stayed in this area sorting threw the small walleye and a few silver bass. We lost count on how many short walleye we put back but it was close to 30, any where between 8 and 14 3/4 inches. Kept 12 walleye for the trip and we are having a fresh walleye dinner tonight.
