Rare catch...another great day 5/31
We fished our favorite honey hole up on the border yesterday and caught 6 nice fish in the first 45 minutes using the same program as last weekend. It slowed down fast and we only caught 2 more in the next 2 hours so we decided to troll SW along the East side of the islands. We would hit pockets and take 3 fish in 5 minutes then nothing again for an hour. I'm sure we could have limited early if we wanted to fight the wind and waves and double back to those hotspots but chose to take the easy route and kept heading back toward Catawba. We did end up with our limits, my niece caught her first walleye ever and my son caught a rare blue walleye! I remember a past post on here about a blue perch being caught and some were talking about the blue walleye but I never thought we would see one on my boat. He was only a 20 inch fish but unique anyway. The WO checked us at the dock and said it was the first one he'd ever seen. I will try to post a pic showing the blue walleye next to a regular one to show the difference.
