Re: Anybody help a weekender?
We fished Thursday August 1st with John around the weather bouy.Got our 12/25lbs but took 6hrs.Started north of old C can, where we caught our 18/38 lbs the week before, but only caught 1 keeper on Thursday.So picked up gear and headed east checking for marks along the way.Set up at the bouy with 4 dipseys with 2 willow blade worm harness and 2 spoon harness.Was trolling between 2.5-2.7 and caught a few keepers but also our share of white bass.Headed east hoping to get out of the white bass in deeper water but also found no more walleye.Picked up and rode back to the bouy again.Had only 7 fish then.Told John about Gobucks8100 post about going slower with Colorado blades.Had nothing to lose so put a couple Colorado blades on our harness and slowed down to 2.0 mph.Was thinking going to catch junk and sure enough hooked a huge sheepshead that must have took 5 min to get in.Chuckled when John tried to lift the net and it didn't budge.Caught 2 more junk fish and had decided to switch back to the Willow blades when another rod fired.John grabbed it and had another heavy fish.Said probably another big sheep...nope it was a 26" walleye.Then rod on other side fired and had another keeper eye.Another 30 min and we had our 12 fish.So thanks GoBucks for the tip.Helped us finish the day on a high note.
