Hit starvy today with wiper hunter for what turned out to be a slow day. After the storm on Friday the fish seemed to be scattered deep and not biting real well. Defiantly not the day we were hoping for. Started out pitching jigs shallow and on the first cast whacked a 20" slimer, and on wiper hunters first cast, the same thing. Another slimer and one chasing it in the next five minutes was enough for me. Time for blades. Picked up walleye from 20ft - 35ft deep going 1.2-1.4 mph. Went through 57 night crawlers today so there always seemed to be something biting. A lot of pop and drops though. Wound up with 8 or 9 walleye, 5 slimers, half a dozen perch, and a few bass. The hot rigs were Kokanee Creek Tackle Walleye Series in the bread and butter pattern and black pearl. Water temp was 52 at launch and 62 when we got off. The bite should improve soon with steady weather. [fishon]
