Fished with Joe and Dan. Temperature this morning was in the upper 60's and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 70's. The forecast was for the rain to stop early in the morning with the wind blowing out of the southwest 10 to 15 knots. When we arrived at the marina the rain was almost over ( we never got wet ) and the wind was out of the southwest about 10 knots. It did not take too long before the wind was up to 20 knots and at one point it got up to 24 knots. Not the day we planned for. The water temp is 74 Degrees. Started fishing in the swamp with wiggle warts set at 50 feet back and we had two nice walleye on right out of the gate and then it slowed down. We reset the lines to 40 foot leads and we were back to catching fish. Things were going good until the wind started blowing hard again. Even though we were fishing in the swamp we had waves between 1 and 2 feet for about a half hour. Once the wind backed off a little we were catching fish again. We were averaging about 3 short walleye for every keeper walleye. Kept 18 walleye and I think Dan caught the biggest one. Caught about a dozen white perch also.
