    Default wind and walleyes water intake (saturday) :-)

    Thanks to leroy77 . Started drift at intake. 20 ft of water, first drift caught 4 keepers, made a second drift caught 2, third drift caught 2 more keepers. Each drift was about to metzgers marsh. Fish were 17 to 20 inches. Threw back at last 50, 12-16 inchers. Largest fish of day was 24 inch sheephead,weighed just over 10 lbs. Ran out of night crawlers, 4 hours of fishing. Used worm harnesses. Great day on lake,thanks again leroy77.

    Hey guys no problem on the info. That's what the board is for. I'll be back at it next week. Might be in cleveland fishing, but if it's around here I'll post if it's good. I'm about to switch to perch. Any info to go along with "wards" would be great. Be safe

    This may sound weird but, make sure your ears are clear and free of wax build up.. The wax can cause pressure and will lead to balance issues. You man not notice it as much on land but with the movement of the boat can make the effects worse..
