Beautiful Day on the Lake

Fished with Joe. Temperature this morning was in the middle 60's and when we quit fishing it was in the upper 70's. The wind was out of the northeast less than 10 knots. The waves were less than 2 feet when we started fishing and after a couple of hours they were less than a foot. We started a little late this morning because the wind was out of the northeast last night up to 20 knots with waves 3 to 4 feet. The water temp is 75 Degrees and the algae bloom is starting. We set up 1 mile east of the E buoy trolling with the waves and we caught a nice walleye right out of the gate. Fished this area for another half hour and caught 1 more walleye but the weeds were too bad for fishing. We moved out to McDonald's and fished the Michigan side of the channel and started to catch a few fish running bandits 110 and 140 feet back. If we got too close to the dumping grounds we were back into the weeds. Kept 11 walleye and had the usual amount of short walleye.
