Sorry Frank.....I should have worded it this way.

How many walleye have been put in your boat this year?

I knew what you were asking. I was just jerking your bobber. I never keep a tally, but I know last week we put 80 keepers in the box in 4 trips, and farmed some keepers and undersized walleye. We were fortunate enough to take many limits the last 4 years. The Saginaw Bay is a fantastic walleye fishery.

It looks like it will be a good year for perch fishing also.We put 6 decent perch in the box trolling for eyes, our last trip. Two of those perch were close to 13 inches long.

Nice job Frank!

Now for the million dollar question. How many walleye have you caught this year?

I don't keep a running tally. Probably a lil over 100. That # is probably close. I let people who don't fish near as much as I do reel in most of them.

TY for sharing the info.

It will get better Robert. At least you got one.

John B, Tom T, Tom D, and myself took a four man limit in 27-30 FOW pulling bouncers and meat. 1-1/2 MPH. Any color. It was a beautiful day on the bay. It was a lot of fun with this great crew. I gave my five walleye away at the launch site. I cleaned up the perch for our dinner tonight. two of those perch were about 13 inches. Yum.

GJ Mike and crew.

What a fishery. I hope to make a trip over there one of these years. Keep hammering them Tom.

That is so cool. I may not get my Fall salmon fix this yr. Some family things may keep me close to home. Keep hammering them.

Three grumpy old men, and one in training got together for a great day on the Saginaw Bay. Mel D, Bill N, Steve N aka (GoinDeep), and I was able to make it happen again on the Saginaw Bay. We took a four man limit, in 28-30 FOW. Glows, Chartreuse, Purple are still doing the job. Bottom bouncers, behind in line boards, and harnesses. 1.5 MPH. Why Change?? It was such a fun day with these guys. Everyone was capable of changing posts, with out a problem. Gotta Luv Dat Saginaw Bay. Bill and Steve are father and son. Steve is in training for the grumpy old man status, but is 20-30 years away from getting his wings. We could accelerate his training, but slow is an important part of the process.

Lester, Welcome to the site. FISHON:)

GJ Jarod. That King looks as shinny as a Cadillac bumper.

oops! did i put 8/14? well i hope i can catch that many that day to!!! jimmy

If anyone can, you da man, Jimmy.

I fished AuGres this morning with TallTails, John B, and Gary K. We took a 4 man limit in 28 FOW, and you will never guess on what. OK you guessed er Chester. Bottom bouncers and crawler harnesses. Glows, Purple, and Chartreuse, will gitter done. 1.5 MPH. It was a tad rough today so we only ran 10 lines.

One word. FANTASTIC:)

GJ Jim. I'll change the date for you. You caught those fish 10 days into the future. I know you are a futuristic kind of a fellow.

Sweet Frank. I thought things were slowing down a bit, but from the looks of your catch maybe they're turning around. Nice job

J

Jason, It is slowing down. It is not like it was a few weeks ago. The fish can be found, but you have to put the time in. We just kept picking away at them. When they turned on we banged our last 8 fish in a half hour. A lot of fish were taken out of AuGres this year. I never saw the launch site as busy as it was, even on weekdays. The local businesses had to profit from this. They could have done a lot better if some of the places would have opened up @ 5 AM. The campgrounds all seemed to do well.

Big Bill M, Paperboy, Big Jack W, and I fished AuGres this morning. We fished 27-28 FOW pulling in line planer boards, with bottom bouncers and harnesses. Glow, Purple, and chartreuse, were our best colors. 1.5 MPH. Keep it simple and gitter done. Big Bill M is Big Jack's B.I.L. from Kansas. I think he will have some fond memories of our beloved Saginaw Bay. We farmed one keeper and 1 undersized fish.
