Fished with Joe and John. Temperature this morning was in the upper 60's and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 80's. The wind was light and variable, less than 7 knots with waves about a foot. The water temp is 72 Degrees. The small bugs started to show up but thankfully the wind picked up a little bit and they were gone. We made a pass through the swamp hoping to fish here but we did not mark enough fish to stay so we headed towards the Toledo Water Intake.We had to dodge a lot of large logs floating in the water which made it difficult to stay on course. We set up around Little Cedar Point and started running wiggle warts set at 80 feet back and bandits set at 65 feet back. For the first 45 minutes we had no fish, then I got a report that they were catching some fish around the turnaround buoy. We finally caught a keeper walleye so we just stayed put. Started to catch some walleye off the Warts set at 100 feet back, so we put Warts on both sides. We were catching a lot of short walleye so we just sorted through the short fish hoping to catch our limit. We tried spoons and dipsy's without much luck so we went back to the Wiggle Warts. Our best Warts were anything with orange on them. Kept 15 walleye and 2 perch. Also caught a lot of junk fish today. Garbage man came through again today! He caught a another large cat fish that would almost put him into the hall of shame.
