A good day on the Bay
It was a little to Sunny and calm for the Walleye to be really hungry, but we did manage to pull in 2. A 16 incher and a 24 incher. What a difference when they were placed side by side. You’d have sworn that the 16 incher was illegal. (limit size 15 inches).
We pulled Hot-n-Tots, Double Downers, JLV Bladed Shad, JLV Fatty Shad, Reef Runners, RockWalkers, and a few other trolling baits, plus the good ol’ crawler harnesses and a couple of different spoons. A chartruse firetiger bladed 2 hooked crawler harness, on a 3 oz bottom bouncer, brought in both , from directly behind the boat in 31 feet of water. Both on the same rod, with 15 minutes of each other. Otherwise the 5 hr trip was a bust. We never got a bite on the planer boards. We logged about 14 miles round trip, maybe 6 or 7 of trolling.
I suppose it could have gone a lot better, but it was still a good day.
