Trophy Specialist Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 There are a lot of walleyes offshore from Au Gres right now. We again had challenging fishing conditions today with some muddy water and weather that basically sucked. We had winds from all directions today with this prolonged low pressure system spinning around Michigan and plaguing us with tough fishing conditions for the last six days in a row. We still managed to take 20 nice walleyes today though for a limit catch for my customers. We were delayed going out today with heavy rains in the early morning. After a great breakfast at H&H Bakery and Restaurant, we headed for the Bay. We also had another delay this morning too, so we really didn't start fishing until about 11:00. We ran north and tried to troll stick baits along the shorelines north of Pt. Lookout past Whitestone Point and only had a couple fish in the box from those efforts. We then relocated to the same spot, in deep water, where we had good action yesterday and limited out. I changed over to a crawler/bottom bouncer program as the fish on the fish finder were showing that they were tight to bottom. A slow trolling speed of 1.2 to 1.3 mph got the job done. Color of harness pattern did not mater as I ran a bunch of varied spinners and they all about took equal hits. When this weather finally stabilizes, the fishing here is going to be off the charts good.Capt. Mike Veinewww.trophyspecialists.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trophy Specialist Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 Starting out how you left off last season, red hot! :thumb:nice job and thanks for the report We hammered them again today in rotten conditions with gusty, switching winds and more squalls blowing through,. It was a double boat charter today and we did best in shallower water on meat. So far this year, we have limited on every trip, including fun fishing outings. It's going to be an awesome year on the Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
