I took out the middle Daughter (Britty) and my pops out for some walleye action and entered the SLA walleye tourny
thinking we would have better luck then yesterday and since we brought in 3 good size walleye we figured we should hit 5 or mabe that total number of 6! 8D
Sadly it just wasn't our day for any numbers of fish.
Started out exactly the same as we did yesterday and bang got him nope lost him, then bang again and then once more two 6, 6.6 LBS walleye in the box by 7:30 am both off the riggers using purple spoons that Brit bought me for Christmas last year!
So this is a good start but I forgot to mention that on our way in yesterday Megan and I had both forgot that we had put the net (to get it out of the way) up on the bimminy top and neither of us pulled it off when we started to come in (%^*&%$$%$^)NO NET! hmmmmm
now what do we do.
We trolled on and hoisted each fish in the back of the boat difficult for sure but I was not going back through those waves to get a net.
As I said we thought we were getting into the fish and then it just stopped and the weather started to change! Thunderstorm started rolling out on the water from the north west and you could see the rain line so far so good no lighning I don't mind getting a little wet and as soon as those words left my mouth FLASH BOOM!
Pack it up and head in!
Needless to say 13.8 LBS of walleye wasn't going to get us the win but safety first.
Still a great time spent out this morning can't wait to do it again!
A few pics of the day!

the early morning just set up shot
this what you do when the fish don't cooperate
and the catch of the day shot
