Making me think the fish will be well into postspawn and moved deeper here by next week is all. We all know that fish spawn according to water temp. (Walleye between 40til 45) not by the month or day. I'm not trying to argue in any way, just gathering as much info as I can.
Believe me im not either I was just venting my frustration with the whole system not closing. Our spawn is under way from I heard, I talked to a few guys that caught a few spawned out females in a few of the creeks looking for steelheads.
