Lots of miles, but killer fish made every one worth it. A solo crew from Iowa — a die-hard fisherman crazy enough to make the last-minute haul over knowing the lake had been absolutely wrecked by two straight days of north winds. Muddy water stretched all the way to the War Buoy — 12 miles from my dock and ugly as hell. But we stayed on ’em, hunted down the good fish, and turned a brutal setup into one hell of a trip. ?

Trolled deep water bandits assisted with 2oz snap weights. Not many smalls or trash fish.

Trolling rattle tots and flicker shad in skinny water has been very productive with a nice grade of fish to boot. Action wont be here long book now!

Mayflys got the walleye in shallow water readybto eat.

4 man limit bite in full swing.
