Scott, John & Chris joined me today for another fun day on the water. What started out as a rainy one soon turned into just overcast skies for the duration. The strong winds would be a different story however as they forecasted gusts over 30 knots for the afternoon. I would have to move around and find sheltered areas to fish!<\/span><\/p>\n

They began tossing baits on current breaks and Scott hooked up on his very first cast. His fish was a real good one and a great starter fish. Generally it\u2019s bad luck to catch a fish on the first cast, but this area had plenty. He was soon into another one slightly smaller a few casts later and things were about to get ugly. John also began catching bass and within the first hour they landed a bunch. It was just Chris that hadn\u2019t brought one to the boat yet and he wasn\u2019t about to either. We decided to make a move for unforeseen reasons and were heading somewhere to fish walleye instead!<\/span><\/p>\n

I set them all up with drop shot rods and made a demo cast on what to do. Within 30 seconds I was tight and the first of many walleye was landed! For the next several hours, fish after fish came aboard, but they were mostly small to medium sized keepers. I wanted something bigger and made a few moves looking for the larger fish. One spot produced a huge northern for me as I was also spot casting new areas. It had to be the largest pike I had seen in a while and even worthy of a pic. They got into many more walleye from here as well, with most of them being larger than the previous spot we had fished.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was looking like the forecasts were right for winds as they began to blow big in the early afternoon. We were fishing an area now that was in the open and could feel the strength of the blow! It wasn\u2019t easy to fish in these gusts and I decided to move back to slightly sheltered water, in order to feel the subtle bites. We would just have to remain here until some of the gusts subsided, before hitting another area nearby. <\/span><\/p>\n

The afternoon was now closing in on our departure and I decided to hit another place before we had to go. Despite the winds still being big, I thought we\u2019d give it a try. Well I guess it was the right decision as Chris managed to hook up on a giant smallie soon after we had arrived. It was a nice change from all the walleye he had previously caught and a beast of a bass. In fact, I believe it was his personal best smallie too! Scott also hooked into one of his own at the same time and I really thought we were into an area that was loaded. After landing both of them and taking several pics, they were looking for more. Unfortunately all they could come up with were several walleye before we were done. <\/span><\/p>\n

This day was filled with plenty of fish regardless of the big winds and by seeking somewhat sheltered areas to fish, we were able to fish comfortably. There may not have been tons of bass caught, but the ones they did manage to land were good ones. Chris\u2019s monster was just the icing on the cake after all the walleye they reeled in. Today\u2019s action was practically nonstop throughout the day with very little slow times and they were even taking a few of the smaller eyes home to eat tonight! Just another great day for fishing!<\/span><\/p>\n
