Herm was back today and this time he brought his son Greg, to enjoy it as well. We were on a quest for a variety of species but walleye and bass would be the major ones targeted. Conditions looked perfect for his first time out and hopefully they would stay that way too!<\/p>\n

We hit an area that was producing and despite not landing many walleye, the bass were a little more cooperative. Greg brought the first one to net and started the ball rolling with a nice photo fish. Several more were caught by both as we made multiple drifts over the area. Ironically, I was marking much more fish than we were getting and eventually opted for a change in locations.<\/p>\n

Our second spit was a walleye one and this was where we did most on the damage, adding several walleye to the livewell. Not only did Greg catch the biggest walleye of his life but he also managed to catch his personal best smallie too! I was seeing plenty of fish here and we were only picking up a fraction of them as they just didn\u2019t seem to want to bite. The water was flat calm and bluebird skies plagued us on this picture, perfect day!<\/p>\n

We had spent a couple of hours fishing the area and I thought it would be a good idea to try offshore for a big fish. It was time to break out the heavy tackle and see if the sturgeon wanted to bite! With the conditions just right, I hoped for the best as we idled over the area looking for marks. It wasn\u2019t great looking but I did see a few fish and decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, only one catfish and a juvenile sturgeon were all we were able to manage. Time to pull the plug and try elsewhere again!<\/p>\n

This time I headed shallower as the sun had been up for a while and I wanted to see if the bass were active here. Soft plastics were thrown and despite all our efforts, only a few fish bit. A slight adjustment to another area saw us tossing a dropshot one again and a few more fish were caught before I just decided to return to where we had most of the action, so far today.<\/p>\n

We spent the last hour or so fishing over all kinds of marks and caught several walleye and bass before we were done. This was all she wrote for today!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s hard to believe that we are only a few days away from September with temps in the 80\u2019s and humidity. This was definitely a welcomed treat after the last few outings with rain, cloud and big north winds. We will be back out again tomorrow with very similar conditions and hopefully the outcome will be just like today. Plenty of fish action and lots of laughs were had by all on this picture, perfect late summer day! They can\u2019t wait to do it again tomorrow!!<\/p>\n
