Walleye 9/16/2014

Had stitches removed on the water 10:45 and fished mid-lake. Caught 7 walleyes, but only two keepers one 19 and one 20. Also 4 cats and 3 bluegills. I thought it would be better with overcast and a slight wind, but not. Covered water from 20 to 35 ft. Water temp 76.5. BB with with silver floats and spinners w/ crawlers. Caught most fish in 33 to 35 ft of water. Left lake at 3:00. I'm pleased to see the short walleyes. The 20 inch had some cuts on it. Maybe gar. All spit crawfish his time and last time all over the boat.

Terry it has been very very tough the last few days and looks like a few more fronts and more rain coming, I wont even think of fishing it again seriously till we get a week of stabilization. But it is making hunting nice, im swatting teal instead of mosquitos.

Thank you for the report Tanderson. Could you identify the color and size of the craws that they had eaten or were they too decomposed?

[Tanderson15]

Tan to brown

The craws are changing colors already. Darn. I just put up my brown jig box. Now I gotta get it back out.

I have not been out in a while now and this is making me jealous... Here is a curiosity question, have you ever used live craws to fish for walleye before? Makes me wonder what would happen if I dropped a few over the side of the boat and eased around.
