Do Not Follow Me

or you will wind up fishing the wrong places the wrong way.

I took a retired acquaintance out today. He wanted to see what a smaller tin boat was like He is accustomed to fishing walleye so that is what we did. We caught bass and we caught many blue gill. We did not catch a walleye, of any size.

I had one legitimate walleye bite - standard load the rod up type - and managed to hook it well enough to bring it most of the way to the boat. Then, just as I was bringing it up from its at the boat lunge, it was gone.

We fished 24 to 32 feet deep. We pulled worm harnesses and trolled with lead core. I even jigged one location with a spoon.

Maybe next time ...

Tough bite. The summer heat has them being picky and deep.

I thought you hi-tech "$onar $cholars" were specifically geared up and anxious for situations like that.

Quit yer whining and put that expensive collection of circuit boards and pixels to work !

Lol!!! I didn't say impossible. I said "tough" meaning you have to slow down and try other things. Worm harnesses, spoons, etc.

Yes, my hi tech circuitry will find them for sure. :-p
