Fished This Weekend

[24KGold]

I went to Romp Hole looking for Walleye. It was my first time and the water was shallower than I thought it would be. We used nightcrawlers in the deeper water and threw Walleye crankbaits, and everything I have ever used with Walleye and not even a hit. In fact, we decided to use tubes for Smallmouth bass, and only caught one.

We could see the bottom most places and hardly ever saw a fish. I guess they were under rocks or were in Tablerock until the water warms up. The water was clear.

It was a perfect day to be out on the river though. We saw Eagles and even turtles coming out to sun on logs. At one point during the day, I laid back on a gravel bar and sunned myself after having lunch. It felt good to be like a turtle for an hour or so.

Guess I'll try the Walleye again in a couple of weeks or so, maybe even after dark. Any more suggestions on Walleye fishing in the Kings would be appreciated. Thanks
