The Mayfly's are Hatching.

Fished with Joe. Temperature this morning was in the lower 60's when we started fishing and it was in the lower 80's when we quit fishing. The wind was light and variable with just a little chop on the lake. The water temp is 69 degrees. Started fishing on the southeast side of the dump trolling wiggle warts set at 65 feet back and mini dipsy's and spoons set at 75 feet back. We were marking some fish but had no takers. The lake was full of fish fly carcasses that we had to remove off the lines every ten minutes and there was also a hatch of small bugs, a lot of small bugs. We finally pulled lines and headed out into Ohio waters. We set up at 41 48 000 / 083 08 100 with jet 40's and spoons set at 75 feet back and mini disk and spoons set at 100 feet back. We finally found some fish but we were running out of time. Fished here for a little while and we kept 6 walleye, had five short walleye that we put back and two large sheep head. The day turned out really nice once we got away from the bugs.
