Also fished tonight at bouy 13 on channel. First evidence of algea this year of any real concern. It was not real thick, but it was enougth to skim the surface. Ended the night with 94 perch and 1 walleye in 3 hours with 6 people fishing.

The water where we were fishing was very clear. Probably could see 6 feet or more down. The clean water only adds to the problem allowing more sunlight deeper into the water column allowing the algea to bloom.

Well, it was not real think, but it was enought to skim the surface.
