Where are the walleye?
Tried our luck today, 8-28-08. Got to our spot , started fishing around 9:00 oclock AM. The weather called for two footers or less. Well everything was OK for about two drifts before all hell broke lose. Rain , wind and white caps, need i say more. don`t ask how many walleye we caught please. I get that from my wife each time we go fishing. Where`s the walleye, where`s the walleye, I`m sick of her asking me that. I tell her one of these days,,,, one of these day`s, we`re gonna limit out, she just laugh. Then i tell her , at least we did`nt get skunked. We caught sheep head , gobeys and a few small bass. We were drifting with worm harnesses until the wind and rain blew us off the lake. Any boby catching any walleye? Where are the walleye?

Where are the walleye?
Went out this morning, started fishing about 8:00, 8:30 AM. Right off the bat my partner caught one ( walleye ). The very next drift, i caught a nice one. I said maybe this is the day we`ve been waiting for. The water was nice , just alittle ripple, the sun was shinning, everything was perfect except the wind. It was comimg out of the West and then switch kinda Northerly. So we trolled , could not drift the way we wanted. We were useing worm harnesses, color ( copper ). Still everything was OK until the battery died on us. No more walleye today. Going to try it again tomorrow . Where are the walleye?

Where are the walleye?
Well the same as yesterday, another nice day,,, can you believe two days in a row and maybe three.We started fishing about 8:00 AM . Things started off a little slow at first, nothing but white bass, gobys and sheephead. They ate a lot of our worms.Things got better around 10:30 AM, ( walleye ). We trolled with the electric motor.Our choice of bait ,worm harnesses, color copper or black did the trick today. The only problem we had , we ran out of worms. Those little gobys are a pain in the neck. Total catch six walleye and one real nice jack perch to bring home.i caught three walleye. Still no limit on walleye, Where are the walleye?

Six eyes is still not a bad catch, actually for this time of year in the extreme eastern basin it is quite good.

all you guys looking for walleye ,don't be discouraged.the thermalcline is setting back up and the eyes are grouping back up and are active again.i hear you guys talk like they dissapeared.they didn't with all the cold fronts and 360 degree winds thru most of august they didn't follow their normal patterns.note to nay sayers remember when times are tough you stop fishing for walleye and start hunting for walleye.if the high pressure holds and bright sun keeps shining by tuesday things will be back to normal.we limited out the last 2 days much deeper and further west than we've been all year.keep the faith there's a lot of good fishing yet.the best is yet to come.good fishing tom & john
Thanks for the assistance. I tried...
