Brrrr!

On Tuesday morning I went out early. The water surface temp in front of Holiday Island Marina was 59 - 62 degrees, depending on whether you were in the flow. I scooted downstream past Eagle Rock. By then the temp was up to 81.

I fished between Owl and Rock Creek. On the third cast this one hit my spook.

I got excited and took the picture. Two hours later I had zero more fish and only a couple of taps on my beaver style grub.

I essentially trolled home. Caught two midget walleye and close to a dozen spots. Two of those were near the same size as the picture. The fish I caught were 26 to 30 feet deep on inside bend flat edges. I maybe need to go deeper for the keeper walleye.

In the afternoon, the water in front of Holiday Island was still only 63.
