Trophy Specialist Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 5/2/15, Saginaw Bay, Au Gres, Fishing Report We took another impressive pile of fish again today on the Bay and did it on a beautiful day indeed with sunshine galore. My clients today, from SW Michigan, fished with me last year and limited out in less than two hours of fishing. Today though the fishing was tougher with dead calm, sunny conditions in the morning and in the crystal clear water we were fishing, that tends to make the fish very tough to catch. The wind eventually picked up some though, but it was unsteady and changing directions, which is also not great for walleye fishing. We picked away at them all day and it took the better part of an 8 hour charter to max out my customers limits of walleyes. Most of our fish were chunky specimens today with only one under 20 inches. These fish are great fighters too with everyone commenting on how they were pulling like crazy. We trolled spinner/crawler rigs all day today with no particular pattern really being preferred. I did have one fire/tiger rig though,, where the chartreuse float got bit off, that was really producing well off a flat line. Most of our fish though came off Church Tackle Walleye Boards, which I spread out about 50 feet apart to cover a lot of water. Trolling speeds of 1.5 to 1.6 mph were best. When I testing speeds faster, we got no hits at all. Even though the fishing today was somewhat tough today, my clients still took home a four person limit of dandy walleye fillets. Capt.
