Was down to Burwell today.
Ran east shallow, set up in 40s due to marks, small, very small, so turned and headed out.
One keeper so kept heading south hoping for the switch to turn on.
Got out to 58 and bang. This is good, nice 5 and change walleye, and then we waited, changed direction and waited more, a lot more.
Erie started at 2 footers, built to 4-5 footers dropped to 1.5 and then back to 2+ footers by the end.
Everything that was caught was caught in the east.
5 walleye, 2 keepers, a late escapee perch, a silver bass and a sheephead.
Covered a lot of water today, I was going put up today's path until I looked at all my waypoints so nope.
Trolled shallow to deep, 60s and then angled shallower back across in front of Burwell to a ways west and shallow again 49ft.
Hooks in most areas, bait not so much.
Changed a lot of baits nothing appeared convincing.
Here's the calm of the day.
Here's the catch of the day.
Nice clean cooler today, total overkill size wise. LOL
While buttoning down the boat I hear, @hvyhaul , @hvyhaul , @hvyhaul, @hvyhaul I turn and it's @tailfeathers passing by. He asked how we did, I told him, he said how he did, but didn't clarify whether it was number of fish or limits. LOL
Might be the last fishing trip, maybe one more next week depending on what I hear or what the weather does.
