Long Boat Ride

Fished with Captain Daryl. Our game plan was to maybe fish because we knew the lake was dirty and definitely work on my boat to fix the engine problem. We saw Scott at the marina this morning and he said one of his friends was fishing up by the nuclear power plant and the water was clean. That was all that Daryl needed to hear, so away we went. When we started fishing the temp was in the upper 50's and when we quit fishing it was in the middle 60's. The wind was out of the northeast around 13 knots with waves about a foot when we started fishing and then it laid down to nothing. The water temp is 60 Degrees. We set up with bandits set at 60 feet on one side of the boat and mini dipsy's and spoons set at 80 feet on the other side of the boat. Once the spoons started to catch more fish we put both sides to spoons and set the one side to 60 feet back. Kept 12 walleye and we did not lose any fish at the net. Turned out to be a good day, we caught some fish and I figured out the engine problem.
