Walnut July 7th

Little better day today.

Started the day around 6:00am, headed out to 50 fow North West from marina. Picked up three on the first pass, dark colors worked the best. Worn harnesses in purple/black and pink / copper willow leaf. Seemed like nothing would hit at slower troll, I bumped it up to about 2.3 / 2.5 mph and that speed would trigger strike.

2nd pass I moved out into deeper water (62/68 fow). About the same story, dark color harnesses 200 feet behind downrigger. Picked up one more, all four fish were taken from 35 to 50 down. I targeted 45 feet.

Very few marks, with the exception of Perch packs.

Final tally was pretty nice size fish, 2 in the 29" range 1 at 26" and 1 at 22".

Fished from 6:00am to 1:00pm.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the report. My wife and I spent 7-4 thru 7-7 fishing out of Walnut could find good numbers of short Walleyes kept 3 in the mid 20s range in close 35 to 45 fow. We also tried 65 to 70 ft very few marks. Hope things improve soon. Thanks for the report
