Going out a couple times in July off Buffalo I managed to get a few decent walleyes in the box each time, but it was more random luck finding small schools. In August it just seems like there haven't been many consistent large schools or patterns set up off Buffalo. Guys at Sturgeon have consistently said that the fish never really made it up that far, so they are just a bit west. That's where I found them last weekend. But again they were spread out a bit it seemed. Usually you can just head straight out of Sturgeon this time of year and they would be easy to find because all the boats would be there too!😜 The lake is also a bit colder than typical for this time of year, not by too much but it does make you wonder. Fishing always seems better when the lake is at its warmest, like it was back in July, maybe because it concentrates the fish better. Just some random thoughts on my part.
