Big fish....party of one please!

Despite the smoking heat and water temps we have managed to put  a smack down on the walleyes this week. The boys in the picture decided to have a fishing trip for their bachelor party and it went...well...pretty awesome.  Headed to ICAST to see all of the new stuff.

Always Learning

Today was kinda a weird day.  The forecast was for 1ft waves...times what!  We made a rather long run and pulled spinners.  Just like every other day right...not.  The bite was brutal early on  until I went against the grain (and the waves), taking a completely different angle.  That was all it took to start slaying big mama's. While I normally preach to always go with the waves, the current was so strong quartering them was the ticket. Walleyes sure do keep me on my toes. We ended up catching a pile, only a few under 7lbs.

Can it be???

Is it possible that we have calm lake conditions and big fish at the same time time...yup.  While I'm going to sound like a broken record, we went out and pulled spinners.  The warm summer water has us going faster than  normal and fishing a little deeper. We still have some openings if you want to go catch some big uns!

Big Waves.. Big Walleyes... and good friends

I had the boat full of tackle, walleyes, and old friends.  At times the waves were so high we would go from seeing 20 miles, only to see a wall of water seconds later.  Good thing the giant eyes cooperated!

While it shouldn't be a surprise, we went out and pulled spinners.  The crew held tough, as it was really rough on the way out.  The tip of the day was not paying too much attention to the graph.  The super clear water kept us from marking the fish in the upper part of the water column while at fishing speed.  We marked them low, but fished them high.  Had the boat in one pass....including some giants!!!

Still putting a hurtin on em!!!

Today was one of those days where we made all the right decisions. Started in the right spot and dialed them in quick. The Big Kat and Farm Child (names handed out today) did a great job at sealing the deal. Managed an incredible 6lb average, with a few hogs thrown in the mix. We were pulling a combo of regular and UV Silver Streak blades much faster than normal, as the temp is nearly 70 degrees.

Onslaught Continues!!!!

Today we had several over 10lbs...a couple are headed to the taxidermist by today's crew. While my fishing skills were on point...my camera skills kinda sucked.  As expected we were again pulling Silver Streak Spinners.  The difference was the water realllllllly cleaned up over night on the few areas I have been running. We switched to a few of my favorite NON UV colors and that seemed to due the trick.  While Luke took a verbal beating from me....he didn't seem to mind after getting his third giant aboard!!! The fish were a little higher than yesterday.
