Great day on the water. Temperature was perfect, nice little chop, and no bugs at all. Left NEM around 8am and back in around 1pm.
My friend and I went 12 for 15 on the walleye, plus 2 sheephead and 1 silver. A few of the walleye were around 1.5 to 2 pounds but most were 2.5 to 4 pounds. We ran 1 rigger 20' down, 1 dipsey on a #3 setting back 65', and 5 and 6 colour lead core (until the 6 colour crapped out and I switched to 4 colour). Everything was firing with Nascar spoon taking a couple on the rigger, blue/silver worm harness taking a couple on the dipsey. Orange RRF and silver/black RRF taking the rest on the lead cores. We trolled from 40 to 58 FOW with most fish coming early in 40 FOW and a little later in the morning when we came back in to 45 - 48 FOW.
Next weekend will be a whole new ballgame!
Tight lines everyone!!
