That's a productive day!! Thanks for the report.

I launched at 6:30am and tried a couple different banks that I don't normally fish. I caught 1 that went 14.5" in the first 10 minutes, but it was slow after that. Like I normally do - I started with a black Buzzbait and only had 2 shorts on it. Water temp was77.4 when I put in and it ended up at 76.4 when I left at 1:15pm. Visability was a couple feet. I couldn't put much together. I caught a few here and few there. No keepers all day. I fished through the rain that lasted a few hours or more. I put 10 or 12 in the boat. I caught a double on a "deep little N". They were about 6" each. I caught a couple on a Mann's spinner bait, deep little N, rock crawler, buzzbait and a couple on a straight worm. I caught my very first Table Rock walleye that went 17". I caught it on a Rock Crawler. That was pretty awesome!! I ran across another poisonous snake. Not a good picture and I took a picture of these geese flying right over the top of me. I thought it was pretty cool. This post has been promoted to an article

Thanks for the report Quillback. What would you say the visibility is at that part of the lake?

I have AT&T in the Cape Fair area and it works fine. I get service wherever I fish in that area.

With a nice side of potatoes!!!

I can't stand to eat any fish or sea food - yuck!!!

I put in 30 minutes before daylight and started to catch a few right after the sun came out. I was throwing my favorite - a black Buzzbait. I was getting hits every 10 minutes or so, so I stuck with it. I didn't hook up but every 3rd or so strike. I had 2 keepers on it. Lost a nice 4ish at the boat while I was trying to get my net free. I threw a shad colored 2.5 with only 1 fish, and I caught a handful of shorts on the rock crawler. Over all it was pretty slow with 12 fish total in the boat. Water temp was 78 when I put in. I only fished 45 degree chunk rock banks. I should have tried other methods but didnt. Check it out Vernon - smiles!!! This post has been promoted to an article

I think it's the general rule of thumb. But every day is different, I have caught buzzbait fish in 45 degree water all the way up to 90 degree water. The conditions and the fish tell the story.

Thanks for the report. Well done.

After the fireworks display in Cape Fair - I watch this go down out of my front window. They cuffed 4 or 5 people and put them all in the water patrol boat. I know that's a tuff job and I want to say "Thank you" to all the law enforcement people out there risking it all.

Unfortunately I didn't have the pleasure of meeting him. I am sending prayers to all his friends and family.

Holly cow - I took a direct kick to privates today.

Nice job Mike. Glad you got out for a while.

Well done.

Well done. Nice fish for sure.

Well done for sure.

Did you get to make the trip up the Kings?

Well done Champ. Thanks for the report!! As always - very well written.

Sounds like a pretty good day. Thanks for the post.

Well done.

Well done Quillback!!! I throw a buzz bait, all crank baits, spinner baits, flukes - basicly anything that is not sitting on the bottom the way you threw your square bill on a regular. I back off the bank when I throw a jig or worm. I have lots of learning to do when it comes to the different types of fishing. Thanks for the post!!!

I wouldn't even try that!! I would rent a place. Wow that's tight.

Well done Bo. You are a night fishing machine!!
