The later you can get into august the better usually but any time in august is very good. I moved my boat to bruce on tuesday and went out I had forty Minutes to fish and did good on walleye. I start walleye charter on saturday there seems to be a good number of fish around early this year.

Thx for that update Jimmy. I'm sure that news will have many ready to trade in their minnow-dunking gear for something a little heavier.

Thanks I figured with the work you put in staying on the fish that info might be "classified"
