April 21st walleye

I turkey hunted until 1 then hit the lake. It was the best day of walleye fishing ive ever had on stockton. Caught 20-25 in 3 hours. All looked like spawned out females,  of the 4 i kept they were all females. I didnt catch a walleye under 17in with the biggest around 7 or 8 lbs 25"+ getting off right as i tried to net her. I knew she was about to get off so i dove over the bow to try and scoop her out,  in the process gouging out a chunk of skin from a tie off cleat. All were caught 15-18 fow on yum worms with a silver spinner rig. One of the bigger eyes had about a 7" shad down her throat.

Yes, sometimes the walleye wins. Great report Trevor, I really appreciate it as I'll be down soon and finally have good weather in the forecast!  Hopefully I can duplicate your success!

The only downside to the trip was that they bit like crazy for 2 hours then the last hour only caught 2. Then i realized that the wind had stopped blowing. I had good 10-15mph winds blowing right into the cove i was fishing. When it quit, it was like someone had turned off a lightswitch.

Great day and good report!

Just curious...Were you hunting COE land around lake? 

I've been thinking about hunting the AM and fishing the afternoon with a possible side excursion of mushroom hunting.

Thanks for the report.

Great day and report! Were you fishing secondary points in coves or a certain type of structure?

I am thinking of getting the father-in-law out on Thursday. Was going to target crappie, but now you have me second-guessing myself. :)

Shallow coves with the wind blowing into the cove. I went today in the afternoon and didnt have much luck. Went out again the last 2 hours of the day and caught 13.
