7/5 Drifting-Casting

Had a great morning the day after the fireworks. We made the trek from East Harbor to west side of Middle Bass and Sugar Island.
Mayfly color beads w/silver blade and chartreuse with gold blade harnesses worked best. 2 of us got 9 Walleye total, w/ 8 keepers and one throwback, and not too much junk at all. 2 sheep, 2 cats. Zero white bass.
They were good sized fish, with a couple going over 20 inches and one big dog, 27". Early fish were shallow, 15-19 FOW and last two were deeper at 26 and 31. Wind died at 10:30-11 AM, so we packed it in.

thanks for the report. What was the wind direction for you?

SW generally.

Thanks, I had my best day casting ever in that area with a WSW wind so I wondered if that had anything to do with it. I have fished same area 4 other times with a different wind direction with not much to speak of.
