Re: Early Season
When I got to Catawba Saturday morning there must have been over 75 boats sitting in the water waiting for what I think was an LEWT event. I guess I'll post how it went for me since I didn't see any posts from them
. I was looking for what I call fishable water, so I decided to head north and east until it cleared up. It started getting better by the time I got about 6 to 7 miles northeast of Catawba so I continued to head towards Gull Island so I could troll southwest with the wind. I was fishing 37 to 40 fow most of the time. I barely got my lines set when I got the first one and then it was a slow to steady pick after that. Speed was 1.2 to 1.4 and the best sets were 60 to 75 feet back. The first 4 or 5 walleye came on a white based bandit with black and green on the ends and a dot in the middle, not sure what it is called, but lots of contrast. Later in the day they were hitting on my gold based lures with black and orange. Ended up catching around a dozen or so, but the 6 that made the cooler were 22 to 26 inches. I talked to another guy at the dock that mentioned they only got one but were only out a couple hours. I felt it was a pretty good day for me and better than a lot of days that I've been out. Good luck everyone!
