What an awesome fishery, the walleye are so big and thick it’s amazing.
We gave that lake hell for two days. Monday was the best day of walleye fishing I’ve ever had. Never thrown back so many 15-17″ eater fish before. I also got the 3 biggest walleye I’ve ever pulled through the ice and I did it in 1 day! (26, 27.5 and 27.5). On Monday our group also landed: 26, 27.5 and a 30 along with quite a few other in the 20-24 range and countless eaters.
Tuesday fishing was more difficult but we still got on plenty of eaters, the biggest that day was 24″. Still can’t complain as we got plenty of fish that day too just not the big girls. We had chances, just had more trouble landing them on Tuesday than we did Monday. we’ll call monday beginners luck.
We hired a guide through Blackwater Cats and we definitely caught more fish because of it. One of my 27.5’s came out of the very first hole he drilled. Our guide Brett was awesome and worked his butt off drilling holes and keeping us on fish. Hats off to him, I can’t imagine how sore I’d be if I had to do his job those 2 days.
Pretty amazing when you are tossing back “shorts” ( 15-18″ fish) and keeping 19-20″ eaters.
Need better sunscreen next time… i’m so sunburnt.
Silver/blue was the best color for us.
