A Great Short Trip
novembre 3, 2021
After cancelling several trips due to insane winds and heavy rains, I was finally back on the water today. This time however it was with my wife and we were going for walleye! A quick stop to have the main engine tightened up and we were on our way!
We were only planning on staying for a few hours, but wanted to see if we could catch a few for dinner. Apparently this was not going to be a problem as the area was stacked! For a while it was every cast and several of them made it into the livewell.
We had been in the same spot for about two hours when it began to rain, or something like that. Turns out that it was more like hail! We had a combination of wet & frozen precipitation for a while that finished off our day pretty quickly. I decided that we would end it sooner than expected and after several more fish, we called it a day.
We were fortunate enough to be able to run back in mostly sunshine and no more rain. The clouds had broken up and we were in clear skies for the trip. It turned out to be a good thing too as once we arrived at the docks, it started to rain again. It didn’t really matter though as we were done and had a great day! Plenty of great fishing was had and there were even a few prisoners coming home with us tonight. Not bad for only a few hours of fishing!
