Fishing Report

[Phil Lilley]

YES- 2 reports from 2 lakes in one day!

Headed to K-dock, hot on the heals of a good crappie report. Inside K-Dock cove just up the cove from the ramp. But the wind was howling right up in the cove and water had risen. No crappie- only a few small whites and a 17.9 inch walleye.

Pulled out and headed to River Run.

Arrived at 6:30- pulled out at 7:30... one hour of boat ride and fishing time.

We went to the place where I read on the forum today where someone had caught a bunch of whites on the river run side wading... I can't find the post now. We found some slack water and drop the anchor. It was every cast for 15 minutes, then nothing for 15... and so on. Mostly small males but ended up with one sow with eggs and 5 nice males. One 17 inch walleye, nice smallmouth and a trout.

They were in the current though, not in the slack water. Caught them on blue/white swimming minnows, 1/4 oz jig head.

Uh,that would've been my report on the Powersite forum.The water has raised almost 2 feet since thursday evening.I released 19 females along with many more males that evening.The Walleye never had a chance to bite my lure!

Just curious Phil, did you go up to the rock pile and see why all the boats have been piling in there?

[Phil Lilley]

No- didn't want to spend the time but I didn't see any up there last evening.

Scott took my boat this am with Vince and fished that slack water and other eddies and put 27 whites in the well by 10 am, launching at 6:30 am. Most were caught on white jigs this time. I helped clean them after my trip- almost all were males but 4 sow- 3 were partly spawned and one wasn't ready. They had 2 over 19 inches- all others were 1/2 pound to 1/5 pound males.
