tough day

[LEfriend]

HAppy Hooker is reporting quick limits this morning right out in front in 7-9ft of water . Always usually very reliable reports from them .

Happy Hooker must have smoked some happy weed before he posted that one! We headed out of Turtle at 8:30 am and did not see any boats coming in with limits. (Guess they were already in....) We cruised out the channel and it looked like invasion of Normandy on the horizon. Game on I thought! Wrong!

Several hundred boats out there. We fished from 8:30 to 2:30, in pack, edge of pack, out of pack. We were most always in sight of a bunch of boats, including more than a dozen charters full of 5-6 guys, and I never once saw a net go in the water! Not one single net! Everyone, including the charters, was constantly moving, all over looking for fish.

As for us - 3 of us jigged from 7 feet out to 14 feet....from out front Turtle to way down past Besse tower....tried all colors and depths. In pack and off on our lonesome. We caught 3 nice walleye (26+) and caught all 3 within 5 minutes soon after lunch, first two on a double! Radio sounded same and people I talked with at dock had similar experience.

It might have helped if the shiners I bought at Hookers had had some size....

Maybe the trollers did better. You didn't miss a jig bite today.... Still, nice day to be on the water after weather we have had.

Same results today. One walleye for 6 hours of fishing. In front of Wild Wings Turtle Creek area. Radio reports all stateing 1 to 2 fish or nothing. In close to out to 14 feet. Asked lady at HH about report and she said they had 3 boats come in about 10 AM with limits. Blade baits. Right out front. I always did say the bait stores never say they are NOT biting.
