Thurs am Sturgeon Hole and Delhine Channel

[CASTMASTER 5000]

What a happy surprise to find nothing but clean water everywhere this morning! http://skunked.ca/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif Launched at 7:30 at City in WIndsor. Once I got out the hole was crystal clear so i dropped leads in the water and pulled wire there for about an hour and didn't even have a tap. So I pulled lines and headed to the Delphine. Within 5 minutes I felt the tug. http://skunked.ca/images/smiles/icon_twisted.gif Proceeded to flip a nice eater walleye over the side of the boat. http://skunked.ca/images/smiles/icon_cool.gif Fished around the channel for about another hour to no avail. The wind started whipping up almost as soon as I got there so boat control was tough. I guess if I went there right off the hop I probably would have caught more fish. They are there. I marked quite a few of them. Right in the channel. I caught mine in 20FOW about halfway out to the shipping channel. Water temp was 35 degrees.

Way to go buddy! We had the same result last night between 3 of us, so be happy you got one. Felt good to be back out there, eh?

[CASTMASTER 5000]

You bet man! the river and lake were like glass early this morning. It was BEAUTIFUL out there!

[Canuck136]

Can anybody identify that bait Derek caught the fish with?

[rjt]

The itch has been scratched. Hope the weather allows us to get out on the 19th, Derek!

Good job D! Get back out there and figure out a pattern. :fish:

[CASTMASTER 5000]

You can count that the next day or night that's nice I'll be back out there.;)

Looking at the satillite photos the river actually looks quite clean in my neck of the woods.

Screw that Mushy! I'll be out again this weekend forsure!:evil:

[Canuck136]

Hope you're not referring to anything we saw last Saturday Chris. US side is pathetic for limits of slob perch. Good hangin' with you.

Derek - anxiously awaiting, getting over there to try out that new Skeeter!

We are in flood conditions here on this side of the state! Less than a half of an inch of visibility.

[CASTMASTER 5000]

Found the lure!:evil: Matzuao Nano Minnow. It's been a very productive lure for me this year and I couldn't remember where I got it or what it was called. Hitting it tomorrow night forsure. 3mph winds tomorrow night. I can't wait!
