June 5th 2019

 

Tim & his son Clay were with me today on what was supposed to be wet one. Fortunately the weather forecasters were wrong, once again!

Despite a difficult start due to inactive fish from the 54 degree water temps, we rallied and got into them pretty good afterwards. They both managed to land their first walleye and northern pike and Clay caught his first smallie and perch as well. In fact, his first walleye was a really good one at 25 inches!

The afternoon bite was definitely better than the morning, with all the sunshine warming up the water. The walleye were officially on fire! We had doubles and even one triple header to give them a great finish. They also both left with a freshwater slam! What an absolutely great day of fishing after anticipating an all-day rain. Way to go Mr. Meteorologist, AKA, Mr. Weatherman!!

I knew it was going to be a tough morning bite when we spent the first hour and only came up with 5 fish! Francisco, Ernesto & Michael managed 2 keeper walleye & 3 incidental smallies before I pulled the plug on 54 degree water!

Eventually we found areas that were holding more fish and got into them pretty good when the sun finally came out. A combination of pike and walleye were landed from various depths of water, indicating that they were all over. They just weren’t very aggressive in 54 degree water!

Michael managed to bring in a few nice eyes, with one of them being his personal best! With the afternoon bite being better than the morning, it’s no surprise that these fish don’t like the weather either! We really need some temperature and sunshine to get into the numbers we should be having. Hopefully June will turn it all around!

Phil & two of his sons, Ari & Zev experienced a great day for numbers today! Plenty of pike and walleye were landed along with a few unexpected smallies.

Mother Nature was up to her old tricks as the forecast was for sunshine and overcast was seen all day. Fortunately the winds were very light, helping with the troll. Zev landed his first walleye ever and it was a real good one too, while Ari landed his first walleye of the season.

We had to cover plenty of water with the water temps so cold but eventually found 54 degrees and hammered the pike pretty good. I can’t wait for some warmth & sunshine to finally get these fish active again!

Just Another Half Day

Aiden, Richard & Bruce dusted off the cobwebs today with a variety of different fish. They managed to land pike, walleye, perch and a bunch of bass that shouldn’t have been there! After pulling up to a walleye shoal I was a little disappointed to see that the pre spawn smallies had taken over. We eventually had to move to an alternate location!

A short half day ended abruptly when the early afternoon winds went SE and got big. It pretty much shut the fish down where we were. The last hour saw us just picking at them and they were barely hooked too! By 2:30 we packed it in and headed back to the ramp where my valet was waiting with the trailer already in the water. It’s always nice when you don’t have to fight the waves to get the boat on the trailer with the wind blowing directly into the launch. Thanks Don!

All fish survived as everything was released to fight another day!

Christopher & Dave joined me a little earlier than expected today. They were supposed to fish the afternoon, but the forecasted high winds saw us rescheduling our start time to 10:00 instead. Good thing too as the winds saw us running back in big waves by 2:00.

Plenty of quality walleye & pike were landed by both but the first couple of hours, in calm conditions, were the best. They were also the easiest, as we ended the trip in three footers! Overall it was still a great day! We might have had to cancel, if we were to start at noon! Over 30 knot gusts would have made it unbearable to say the least!
