Walleye NE of Kelleys

[Patty Lou]

I've been reading posts on here for years and finally decided to register so I can hopefully return a favor or two.
Fished NE of Kelleys on 11/2 and 11/16. Like most of you I marked plenty of fish, at all depths. Slim pickings in the deeper water, at least for me. I started targeting marks in shallower water, 27-39 feet, just off deeper water. Bingo! Bandit deeps. Set my lines from 60-120 back. Speed varied from 1.9-2.3. Tried to cover the entire water column. Was even bumping the bottom sometimes. Color didn't seem to matter much although I ran my favorites, red head, fruit dot and anything with purple on it. Two-man limit on 11/2 in 3 hours. Had a five fish fire drill at one time. Three-man limit on 11/16 in 3 hours. Back at the dock at 10:30 am. All nice fish, from 18-25 inches.

Thanks for the report Patty Lou! It's good to hear of a report from an area where people aren't so piled up this time of year! I've only been out twice this fall, but for me the average size has been a couple inches smaller than previous years. Maybe the bigger females just haven't come this far west yet with 55 degree water. Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
