J-Doc Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 Can't remember the name but you've seen them. I think they were Yum Money Minnows or Luck E Strike swimbaits. I even threw one on a chatterbait to see what I could kick-up on a reaction bite and that's when I caught the walleye. It was about 22-24" long, good weight. I was getting the net thinking I had a 6-pounder and then saw it was long, lean, and smiling at me with those dorky teeth. Granted the first walleye I caught on Beaver last year was a thrill. After catching 4-6 in a day and no bass bites, I was done and didn't care if I caught any more. Wild Eye huh....I have some of those but they stink so bad (plastic) I've never had any luck and just don't use them much. Need marine repair? Send our own forum friend "fishinwrench" a message. He will treat you like family!!! I owe fishinwrench a lot of thanks. He has been a great mechanic with lots of patience!
Guest Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 Toothy critters that bite swimbaits like money minners are welcome in my cooler any day. 4-6 big walleye would produce more fillets than a limit of crappie right now. I'm ready for some topwater myself....
J-Doc Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 I realize I'm odd when some guys would rather catch walleye than any other fish. That won't be a problem on Beaver the next few years. Population is quite healthy now. Need marine repair? Send our own forum friend "fishinwrench" a message. He will treat you like family!!! I owe fishinwrench a lot of thanks.

Stump bumper Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 Stoped along the old RT12 today and walked the road throwing a small jerk bait and expecting a big largemouth and ended up with a bunch of BIG whites. They were pushing shad all the way back in the creek around dusk.
