More great July fishing. Drifting was good , trolling was good. Limits and very near limits in the heat , but the wind helped keep the bite going. The weekends coolers all nice fish 15.5 to 24 inches in the west end and big boxes of fish for our Geneva trips. Fish holding near bottom most of the weekend in 27-31 foot. Mike on Reel Sport was near me most of the weekend. Some of the best drift fishing of the year is in July. Saturday was great fishing after the storm went thru as we waited a couple hours for a safe sky after all the lightning. They like the windy early mornings to feed. Drifters and trollers catch rate about even. Boat #3 took a limit Saturday with 5 guys from Indiana that never fished before. They casted for about 20 eyes, then finished with 36 after trolling for a few hours. Boat #2 took Geneva limit Sunday in 6-8ft swells way offshore, just rode the waves home. Back at it this weekend Friday thru Tuesday for my yearly July walleye fest in Ohio and Canada waters. Water is warming up and the weather has not affected the bite much. This bite should continue like last summer. Lots of small minnows out there, huge schools everywhere I looked. Even friday as we pulled in walleye after walleye, the minnows on top of the water where jumping out of the water all around the fish being reeled in. Like little flying fish. Picked up several nice yellow perch Sunday also while taking walleye while drifting. DNR boats on the water checking and counting fish while on the lake. A buddy got checked and they counted his cooler just as he was headed in, 14 miles offshore.
