After the Big Blow

Fished with Joe and Daryl. Temperature this morning was in the lower 50's and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 70's. The wind was out of the southwest around 10 knots with waves about a foot. The water temp is 64 degrees. The talk around the dock this morning was the water was very dirty from the east winds we had over the weekend. It was so bad that the marina sent us a text telling us not to come to the marina on Saturday because of the high water. The main road heading into the marina was flooded out. I did not want to travel very far so we set up in the swamp in dirty water running bandits on one side and mini disks and spoons on the other. Things were not looking very good and then we caught a walleye off the bandit. Kept trolling towards the c buoy and the water started to clear up a little so we took off the bandits and ran all spoons. Started picking away at some walleye so I decided not to leave the area. Caught a lot of short walleye and silver bass and Joe even caught a large catfish. It was a tough bite today and we only kept 11 walleye.
