Today's trip was with three generations of the Otten family from the Milwaukee area. I've had the great pleasure of fishing with this family for a few years...and I really look forward to it every year. Gene, Henry and Nick make fishing a lot of fun!!! Yesterday we had to wait for the storms and heavy rain to move through before heading out. We managed to scrounge up 6 "eaters" and a nice perch before heading in. Today I was pretty worried for most of the trip, all we could get was undersized fish. We made a bold move and changed tactics and in the last couple hours of the trip we caught some very nice fish. We pulled 5 walleyes between 25 and 29 inches, two decent pike, two huge catfish around 12 and 15 lbs., and a huge sheepshead. With tourney day tomorrow I can't elaborate much on the how's and where's, but it was a fun end to a great couple of days with some great people. Here's a picture of today's catch, good luck from all of us in the Bay de Noc area.
