Calm waters, beautiful day.
We were marking a ton of fish but few fish in the boat, we did end up with 4, 3 perch and a cat. We started off bottom bouncing but ended the day just pulling fligs. None of the fish were caught BBing. Water temps climbed from 46 at launch to 52 when we were getting off the water at 2 pm.The DWR were out doing their gill netting, for walleye, in case anyone was interested.

Thanks for the report Curt, was a beauty of a day... Did you see me drooling as i drove past on the way home???? There were still at least a half dozen rigs in the parking lot when I drove past... Got to say I was thinking about it all day... Not sure I'll make a full day at work today... Sorry the catching wasn't up to the weather, but had to still be a great day out... Lucky skunk... Later J

They just started on Monday, so there will not be any results until it is complete and I'm not sure when that will happen, but I'll contact Chris Penne today and get some more info.

Mike was there on Tuesday as well and he got one eye that day. Good to hear you got one eye. What color blade or lure were you using while BBing?
