Rain Delay

Fished with Joe. Temperature this morning was in the lower 80's and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 80's. The wind was out of the west around 10 knots with a little chop on the lake. The water temp is 78 Degrees. We set up in the swamp running wiggle warts set at 70 feet back. As we were setting lines Joe saw some lightning on shore and then we received a call from another fisherman about the storm so we both headed back to the marina for our safety. Waited the storm out for about 40 minutes and when the rain quit, away we went. The lake was calm and the fish were hungry. We could not even set lines and the fish were biting. Kept 12 walleye, 1 perch, put back 4 short walleye and only caught 1 silver bass.
