1/8 night bite

[Fish24/7]

Had that itch to go for a couple hours so I grabbed a couple of rods and baits and went. fished off the bank from 5-7:30. Just to get out before the weather changes. Weather was nice,in the high 50's with a Southern breeze.Started with a 4" swim bait on a 3/8 head ticking the bottom. After about 10 casts I snagged and broke off. Pretty shallow bank probably 8' deep at the end of the cast. One thing that sucks sometimes about bank fishing is you can't go get your bait back 😄 I had one more pre rigged so I kept at it. No bites until after dark. That's when she bit.

Caught and released. Checked my knot and line for nicks, all good. Very next cast,snagged,and bye bye jig😐. 

Went back to the truck grabbed the other rod with a 3/4 oz homemade red skirt gold blade single spin on it. Made about 5 casts and wham! Big fish on, got it all the way to the bank and saw it was a nice walleye 5-6lb I'm guessing. And she had it deep . Line broke when I tried to drag her onto the shore. ------- 😆 bye bye walleye.😮

tied on a jerkbait cuz that's all I had left with me , no bites. 

Hope the weather isn't a flood . Lake is just getting back to where I like it this time of year. 🤞
