Fished with Joe.Temperature in the morning was in the lower 50's and when we quit fishing it was in the middle 70's. For the first couple of hours there was no wind or waves and then the wind started to come out of the east about 10 knots which made a light chop on the water. The water temp is 58 Degrees. Had a few minor problems but that is always expected on the first trip. We set up south of the S buoy trolling through the dump heading towards the E buoy. Trolling speed was 1.8 to 1.9. We had bandits set at 50 feet on one side of the boat and worms and harnesses set at 45 feet back on the other side. About midway in the dump we caught our first walleye off a purple bandit. Made the turn and went back over the same area and we caught one more walleye off a purple bandit. Picked up one more fish off a crawler and then the catching just quit. We started heading towards the C buoy and we finally started to catch some fish. We switched both sides to bandits and that helped a lot. Kept 10 walleye and we only caught a few junk fish. That's Catfish Joe holding the big fish of the day.
