Hoping to catch some walleye, I launched the kayak at sunup. I’m sad to report I did not have a single walleye bite, I did find a mess of crappie though. After only catching a few off my normal bushes, I figured I would move in shallow, due to the water warming up (Last week it was 38-40, now it is 45-48). Nothing was biting so I decided to fish deep; real deep, 45 – 50 foot deep and see if I could find the whites. Once I found a bush in that range, I dropped the jig down to the top of the pile. To my surprise, I pulled a 12in crappie out. Almost as soon as I dropped it back down, I had another crappie. As soon as I caught my 14th fish they shut off. I tried for another hour, for that 15th fish and nothing.

I think all in all, I caught about 20 crappie and one white. The white was nothing to speak of. It was maybe pushing the 6in mark.

There were a lot of boats out yesterday, I hope we see some other reports. I’d like to know if anyone found the walleye. Being sunny may have hurt the walleye bite.
