I was finally able to get my grandsons out on the river. They both did great landing 2 each and my wife caught the biggest of the night. we were done by 9:00. -
Put them at work in the garden this morning and planning a walleye trip tonight. -
Got the boys on Butterfield and each caught a bass and a bunch of bluegills.

My grandsons are here this week and wanted grampy’s fish. They did a great job helping get the fish ready to fry. Now I need to get them out on the river to haul in a few. They had fun last summer fishing in their pajamas. IMG_4411.MOV

Got another limit yesterday morning. -
Got out early this morning with Adam Powell. calm early but west wind built into 2 1/2 footers when we left at 9:30. Got to be no fun! Saw some fish early in 65-85 fow but only got 3 dink lakers. Moved out along the finger in 65-75 fow and took a couple browns on spoons and right before we left hit a nice king off the rigger on magnum spoon. -
I saw on the news there is a very big tournament at Wadington this weekend. Just not the Elite. Many major tournaments and club tournaments all summer long.

Early Sunday morning when I returned from walleye fishing to the Keewayden ramp I was disappointing to see about a dozen dead bass floating along the shoreline. Pretty obvious that there was a tournament and those fish were casualties. What a waste and a black eye for the tournament fishermen. Guess they better learn to properly fizz or not fish the deeper water.

After about 4 years I was able to get Rusty Russell Shultz out for an early morning on the river. Beatiful morning😀

Another day in paradise.

Same for me
-
I just checked a 22”. Looks like 9 or 10 years. -
Same pattern with me.
-
Look up easy hook removal and there are several videos showing the technique. I had to modify by tying off heavy braid and yanking my hand with hook downward while depressing the barb. Same basic idea.
-
Got off to a bad start early this morning when I drove a treble hook into my finger past the barb while organizing my boat. I was able to wrap some heavy braid on the hook and depress the barb and it popped right out with first tug. Fishing started slow but ended up with my limit.
-
I tried the same with a 25” SLR walleye. Not as distinct as ProT but I think 13-14 years.
-
Tested positive for Covid on Thursday so I’ve been laying low isolating. I got up this morning and grabbed a quick limit in spite of some coughing. At least I’m starting to feel better.
-
Downriggers will work but difficult if you don’t really know the area. I don’t think planners would be a good idea as drop offs are pretty sharp and also have to deal with floating weeds. Perhaps heavy snap weights might get you to desired depth. Tough to get stick baits deep enough without weight although sometimes they can be caught in 18-25 fow at night.

I’ve been catching some huge bass but release them as I have plenty of walleyes and perch to eat. mosquitos can be bad in the evening without wind. Less so in early morning.
-
Mostly 30-35 fow but during the day deep jigging in 80-100.
-
Another early morning!

Beautiful

Up early and done early this morning. Another beautiful morning on the river.
-
Took a couple friends this morning early! We caught 4 and dropped 1. The SW wind had the current really ripping.
