Sanford Lake 9-28

[gmalicoat]

Went out for a good chunk of the day and it was slow. The wind was whipping up pretty good in the afternoon and I could not get on any pattern for pike or bass. Panfish weren't on the bite either. The high point came at the end of the night when a buddy was in the area and wanted to make a few casts. I swung by my place and picked him up and we shot over to a usually productive flat.

I was whipping a chartreuse spinner bait and right next to the boat something smashes it, of course I figured it was a pike. I was wrong, it was a 27" walleye-the second biggest I have ever caught out of the lake.

Nice size eye for Sanford. I know Chamook catches a few eyes on white spinnerbaits in the Saginaw. I never really fish spinnerbaits but might have to try a few of the white ones.

I have never heard of anyone catching walleyes on spinnerbaits, but I am a person who will use whatever works. I may try that some time.

I've only heard of it once and it was a 27" just like the posters.
