Went out this afternoon about 4p and was planning on fishing Gull Shoal, on the way out I was running the west side of Kelley's in about 25' of water and my graph was filled with fish. I decided to make a few casts to see if I could catch anything. To my surprise my first cast was a 17" walleye! I threw him back in and casted again, 3 walleyes on 4 casts! I kept one 22" walleye the others were 18" or smaller so I threw them back. The wind was out of the WSW and was blowing me towards the island but I continued to fish. I kept catching walleyes all the way until I got to about 12' of water.

I ended up catching probably 20 walleyes and kept my limit of 6 with the biggest being a 26". I was fishing just north of the stone loading pier starting in 25' of water and drifting until I was in about 12'. Most of the fish were coming in the 20' - 23' range. I also caught several catfish, but only 3 sheepsheads. I was using a 1/2oz chartruese and orange Parrish Pea, casting and counting down to about a 10 count.

It was nice to actually get on some fish for a change, I had a blast even though I was alone. I will be heading back there tomorrow afternoon again.
