Today was a long day to day to say the least! A group of four in the morning opted to try for sturgeon and unfortunately they didn’t cooperate. Although we only fished them for a couple of hours, the results were dismal at best. Two eels and two Redhorse suckers! I eventually switched the guys over to walleye and they had a blast. Everyone managed to land several and they all took fish home with them in the end!

The afternoon saw a tough bite but I stuck with the fish that I knew were in an area and refined everything to make it work. By using the electric motor we were able to slowly move over the flat that held good walleye. A lack of wind made it seem like we were anchored! Plenty of big fish were caught and several high end keepers were taken home by Jonathan and his family for some good eating tonight. The three of them enjoyed catching probably the biggest eyes they’d ever seen, under extremely tough conditions. Flat calm, bright sunshine and hot temps definitely made for a challenging afternoon today!
