[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2][#002850]Hit Pineview in the morning and Willard in the afternoon with Petty4Life. Fished Pineview from about 6:45 AM to 10:30 AM. Water was 60* back in the bays and 58 out in the deep water. We were out in the back bays targeting muskys and did a lot of casting with buz baits, top waters, and cranks with no luck. Decided to troll for a while and PFL picked up one young 26 inch musky. I can't say I even had a bite. [/#002850][/size][/font]

Left Pineview, got lunch, and launched at Willard at about 12:30. Water temps are up to 68-70. We trolled lots of different things that have produced in the past but only got a few good hits and one very healthy walley.

My fishfinder went belly up and so we left around 5:30.

I would call it a very slow day but better days are just around the corner. Thanks for joining me P4L. I enjoyed getting back out on the water with you again.[/#002850][/size][/font]

Hey Ralph,

BL is a much better place to have a slow day fishing.
