Bad weather

[cycleguy]

Living in WI and looking for a three day window to make a trip over, and hope to fish all three days - have not found one yet. I could be missing out, but not being fully sure of how much wind can be tolerated I mix in all the east wind, and it pretty much eliminated April. Even this coming week, just doesn't work for me to make the trip solo in my 17' boat.

Can't say how bummed I am about it. Getting here was suppose to be my 2017 bucket list thing. The big spring trip.

Now as we get into May, not even sure if my trolling cranks option is a good one? I assume jigging gets skinny now.

What drives the minnow versus crawler bite is water temp. In my experience, water temp over 50, I go to crawler harnesses. Even then, blade baits work usually throughout may.
