Buddy and I hit the river last weekend. Managed to get our limits jigging. He had never caught a walleye from lake o or SLR before and every fish he caught was his biggest ever. Including a 30” 11 lbs. All in all a great trip
Haha no problem. Never want to catch them but they are a fun fish to catch. I love jigging them over trolling. I tie up my own hairjigs ranging from 1/2 to 2 oz.
Got out over the weekend jigging channel shoals with heavy hairjigs and managed a few. Caught a massive drum as well. Wish I wasn’t solo for a better picture. What a fight. Bite is just starting where I fish
Animal art taxidermy in Mexico. Fran moshier. He doesn’t advertise himself quite like the other shops but his work is great. My dad got a walleye mounted by him 25 years ago and it still looks great. I’ve gotten some other fish done by Him and they look very good as well. There’s a lot of good taxidermists around.
I also have been trying to learn the river eyes on my weekends in the islands. My uncle got a camp this year up there so I visit as often as possible. Had some decent success but the fishing is inconsistent at best most days. The constant northeast wind never seems to help either. All the bigger walleyes in the photos were released with the biggest so far this year being 30” and 11 lbs.
I’ve wanted to get up there the last few years around opener but with high water and unpredictability it just hasn’t worked out. Sounds like it’s been difficult at best
