Another great day on the water today with Denny, Jim Sr. and Jim Jr. We got on the water a little before 7 a.m. and headed out to troll some harnesses. We were using both Walleyes Choice harnesses as well as the new "in-line harness system" from J & K Tackle. We used a variety of colors today with W-11 being a great producer (chartreuse bead/copper willow blade) as well as the J & K Blueberry muffin pattern colorado blade. We were able to get our 15 fish limit and get off the water before the rains moved in around 2 p.m.. Our fish ranged from just over 15 inches to a few in the 23-24 inch range. We didn't catch as many little guys today. Saw a couple other boats on the water, but it's sure been quiet out there lately. All the rain recently is bringing in a lot of nice dark water to the bay, which really helps the bite. All the rivers at the north end are flowing as good or better than they do in the spring. I'm thankful to see the rain...but my garden sure could use a break and a few days of sun now. Here's a picture of today's catch, good luck from all of us in the Bay de Noc area.
