On the water 5:25 am, probably among the first 10 boats, 4 rods stacked on downrigger. Started trolling 5:55 am, and immediately got a rainbow after first downrigger was set up.
By 9 am still only 1 rainbow in the boat, probably because I was targeting mostly bottom, but around 9 am set all rods on 35-45 ft depth, by 10 am 3 more walleyes, and by noon 11 walleyes and 2 rainbows, were 1 short of 2 man walleye limit.
7 walleyes came off pink perch small lure (4 walleyes within 30 minutes), 2 off blueberry muffin (the bigger one, with a yellow end), 1 off blue RRF, 1 off gold RRF, first time I had 0 fish off worm rigs. The rainbows came off green NK lures with a small dodger.
We were in the 68-70 fow, almost all but 1 walleye were off 40ft depth or so. Trolling speeds were 2.0-2.5 MPH.
Oh and one more thing... Happy Canada Day! ???
