Fished with Daryl. Temperature this morning was in the lower 70's when we started fishing and it was in the lower 80's when we quit fishing. The wind was out of the west switching to the southwest less than 8 knots with just a light chop on the water. The water temp is 79 degrees. Started fishing by the Water Intake (41 43 350 / 083 14 250) and trolling east with wiggle warts set at 70 and 90 feet behind the boards. We were catching a lot of short walleye and then we finally caught a keeper off the 80 foot set up. Switched the longer leads to 75 feet but we were still catching a lot of junk fish. Daryl put out a couple of large dipsy's with bomber As set at 25 feet back and they started to catch some walleye. We were just picking away at the walleye until the sun started getting above us and then the catching just shut down. The last two hours of the trip we did not box any walleye. Caught a lot of walleye between 13 1/2 and 14 inches. Have not seen this size walleye for a couple of months. Kept 6 walleye and two of those were just 15 inches. It might be time to start perch fishing unless the walleye decide to move back to Michigan waters.
