This is a post I put in the "go get em" thread. Figured I post it for all you guy's/gal's just looking for reports.
*********
Went out to Fairhaven. Started fishing around 8:45. Lots of slush.
Tredged out though the slop and set up in approx. 6 fow. Water was clear.
Sat for half hour and didn't see anything. Was getting ready to move and hooked up with a 10"er. another 15 - 20 minutes another, and so on.
Ended up with 15. 10 are 10 inches or better. Biggest being around 12.5". Even got one (only 1) with the spear! First time ever. The action was slow but the quality was very good.
Caught them on pearl and chartruse rapala and white with read strip pimple. Active minnows seemed key.
Had a school of monster gills hanging around all day. First time ever I've gone out without wax worms or moussies. Wouldn't touch the minnows. Tried beads, string, nothing :sad:
Had to pull my rigs out of the water several times because big toothy critters & bass were eye'n my minnie's. Caught one 15" bass. But of course the one Walleye I saw in the morning stopped, looked and left.
It was nice, very relaxing day. I think I should do it more often. :)
