Daryl Found the Fish Today

Fished with Joe. Temperature this morning was in the lower 70's and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 90's. The heat wave is continuing. When we started fishing the wind was out of the southwest around 10 knots with waves about a foot and after a couple of hours the wind switched and the waves were less than a foot. The water temp is 72 Degrees. Started fishing in Brest Bay trolling towards Fermi with jet 40's and spoons set at 70 feet back and bandits set at 130 feet back. Trolled this way for about a hour without a bite and things were not looking good. Got a call from Daryl and he was on some walleye about 3 miles north of Sputnik so pulled lines and headed out that way. We set up with the same program and nothing was happening,so we put our jet 40's back to 90 feet. Caught a couple of walleye off the bandits and one walleye off the jets, so we put both sides to bandits at 130 feet. It was game on and we had our fish pretty quick. We actually caught too many keeper walleye when we were done fishing and had to put some back. The mayfly hatch is starting. On the ride back to port we were driving through batches of mayfly carcasses. Our best setup was the bandits set at 130 feet back. When we got back to port most of the boats were using the jet 40's set at 70 feet back and catching their limits. Kept 12 walleye and we only had 4 short walleye that we put back. Did not catch any junk fish today.
