Normally, June is our best month of the year for numbers of walleyes & saugers with good size crappies mixed in as a bonus.
Many of those fish are caught while trolling suspended crank baits but so far this year, the bite has been slowed down as one cold front after another rolls thru Wisconsin preventing the water from warming up. The cold weather is slowing down the speed with which walleyes and saugers transition from post spawn feeding habits to early summer feeding habits.
Once this transition to early summer is complete, the walleye and sauger bite should be much more consistent as well. We typically will catch limits along with several good size fish mixed in.
The bite isn't bad right now but it should be getting a whole lot better real soon.
