Productive Walleye Outing
August 2, 2019
Suzanne & Ross were with me today for what was supposed to be a half day, morning trip. It was soon extended during the morning to a full day, as I wasn’t booked in the afternoon. Good thing too as the early fishing wasn’t all that great!
Although they did manage to land some nice fish, the numbers just weren’t there. I did however drift over a school of walleye that kept them occupied for almost two hours though! They just loaded the boat with them and at one point it was every drift. I eventually just anchored with the electric and they pounded on the fish!
We spent most of the time drop shotting open water catching both bass and walleye but the bite was pretty slow. Sure glad for the school of fish regardless of their size! They did manage to catch plenty of keepers too and brought a limit home with them in the end!
Fishing may have been slow at the start with the lack of wind but it definitely turned around in the end. It soon became another high numbers day for a couple that had barely fished in years. Something tells me this won’t be the last time we see each other, as they are already talking about doing this again!
