I left Sandusky that morning at 6am and drifted about 6 miles north east east of kelly’s by myself. At the end of the drift I was right on the Canadian line.
Easy ride out going with the waves. Brought 4 Walleye home on one rod using gold worm harness on bottom bouncers on the bottom. Fished 630 to 9. Lost 3 at the boat and had several shorts. Never drifted so fast before. A good day is usually .8 sometimes I’ll get to 1mph. But on Sunday was moving 1.4mph.

Question.... weather bouy data was saying 2 foot wave height. I would say 3 to 4 with some bigger as itsbob said. Is weather buoy pretty accurate data? Usually don’t venture that far so I have no reference.

2nd question.....a 8” walleye swallowed the hook. He floated when i threw him back. I assumed he wouldn’t make it when i put him back in. Is that my only option with one like that?
