Dr.Ed
Looks like we were east of ScubaSteve 2 weeks ago.
We're out with the family 11 am to 3 pm caught 1 walleye 27"-6.8 lbs. 42ft of water east of Bula about 5 miles
Marks were scattered caught this fish on wire 130 back 2.2 mph on a long A.
Seen nets flying on and off while we were out and nice 2 coolers of fish at the ramp.
The water temp then was 53 warmer now ?????

Walleye were in 67 feet of water from the cabins in the state park to Madison park. we did well yesterday with pink and purple kranks and same worm harnasses' Still trying to figure out new sonar/gps unit so I can't give you the numbers. We were fishing 105 to 120 feet back at 2.0 mph

N41.56 only gets you 6-7 miles off shore - Double check please

dr ed be sure and post how you do. like to read good fishing reports.

Sherman, the fact that you like good fishing reports is the very reason I am not posting. Example: 2 days ago I ran out 15 miles NE of Geneva (Yes, past the 04 line) and ran 6 lines for almost 5 hours without a walleye. If that's what you want to hear, I have a few more reports over the last 2 weeks......

that's not what I wanted to hear. we did our best about half way between Geneva and bula from the 01 line to the 04 line fishing the top 40' of water with our divers and 50' on our downriggers. we use lite bite slide divers set on 130 back on a 4.5 setting and caught fish as shallow as 60' back on a 1.5 setting and 75' back on a 3 setting. the numbers are different on the slide divers but I think the settings would be like a 3 2 and 1 setting on a dipsy. a lot of guys on the radio was running 100' and 120' leads on a 3 setting on dipsy's and was catching fish.

Yesterday I proved you don't have to go 15-20 miles to catch fish. The first fish came off the downrigger down 40 feet on a 4 inch shallow diving bomber just east of the 00 and just south of the 56, less than 5 miles out. The last one was caught jigging up a Sir Walleye Stinger from the bottom and I was only 7.2 miles NE of Geneva. If these fish stay there I can run 10 trips before I have to refuel my sweet 150 E-Tec. Life is good.....
