may 2nd
We went out at 6 am yesterday. Fishing was slow. We hit several reefs, Kcan and a few other spots. We caught 20 fish total in 7 hours of fishing. It was one fish here one fish there all day. At the fish cleaning we had 60 pounds of fish for a 3 pound average. Not bad since everyone seemed to be struggling. We caught everything on purple hair jigs within 6" of the bottom. We probably caught at least 15 to 20 sheephead. The captain said it was the most sheephead he had seen caught this spring. By the way we had six guys fishing on the boat so not even close to a limit. I can't complain about our results based on wind change mid morning and cold front on Friday night.

Fished staright out of Wild Wings today, about 1.5 to 2 miles 16 to 20 feet of water. Very slow for us. We managed 6 between 2 of us. I am thinking the fish are in the transistion right now. None of the males we caught today were milking unlike last weekend when they all were, if that means anything. Tried bouncers this am when there was a little drift, only white perch. Been a tough spring with the weather this year.
Whos yer daddy- Any size to the perch over that way?

Friday May 8th morning fishing
My wife caught two walleye, one 16" and one 24" on a perch spreader in 20' of water fished just off the bottom, about a half mile south of E can. She also caught 6 white perch and 2 white bass. She caught one walleye on a night crawler and one on a minow.
I was using the purple jig tiped with a minow, and caught a sheephead. I tried other lures but the spreader my wife was using was doing great!
Well I am eating fish tonight because I brought my wife!
