August 2nd...awesome bite!!!

Permalink

Today's trip was with Dale DeWildt from Appleton Wisconsin. I had a great trip with Dale and his son back on opening day. We let some rain showers pass by early this morning, then headed out on the bay. It's been a great bite lately and today was no exception. It started out good, slowed some, then when the wind started to blow a little it was "game on". The last hour and a half of our trip we could not keep 6 lines in the water. At one point we caught 8 fish within ten minutes with only half our lines out. It was fast and furious to say the least. Lots of little fish today again, which is great for the future, but we did catch somewhere between 25 to 30 keepers too. It was really fun for me because usually the clients get to catch the fish...but when they bite like they did today I got to catch a lot of them too. For the last 45 minutes we decided to put away the trolling gear and we drifted through the huge school of fish with floating jigs tipped with 1/2 crawlers for some hands-on fun and we actually caught some larger fish than what we already had in the livewell, but they were released because I don't like to do much culling when the water temperature is 75 degrees. I-51 was the hot Walleyes Choice (http://www.walleyeschoice.com) crawler harness as well as a bright chartreuse #4 colorado blade. With all the undersized fish released, we easily caught close to 50 walleyes this morning. Here's a picture of Dales mess of nice "eaters" to take back and enjoy with his gal Betty. Good luck from all of us in the Bay de Noc area.
