Cold and Windy Trip

Fished with Captain Daryl and Tom. Temperature this morning was in the lower 60's and when we quit fishing it was in the upper 60's. The wind was out of the north northeast less than 10 knots when we started fishing with waves around a foot and when we quit fishing it was just under 20 knots with waves 2 to 3 feet. The water temp is 67 degrees. Started trolling east of the Ohio dumping grounds with wiggle warts set at 75 and 85 feet behind the boards. We started catching fish with both setups until the wind started to pick up. Once the wind started blowing we turned and trolled with the wind and waves to our backs. Only caught one keeper walleye on this troll and it was getting hard to stand up so we called it a day. Kept 4 walleye and had the usual short walleye that we put back.
