Priority1 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I had the pleasure of fishing with Tim, John V, Mike R, Alex J, today. Alex is my 12 yo grandson. The bite was challenging to say the least. We marked a lot of bait and the fish we caught were gorged on minnows. I resorted to the force feed em method. 2oz BB off from 10 OR12 Offshore boards, 3 oz BB off two down rods. Speed was 1 MPH up to 2.4 MPH. 27-35 FOW. A glow green was our best color but everything produced. We had a little 13 fish flurry on the end to finish us up. We just had to figure out how they wanted it and then gave em lots of it. We farmed 3 keepers. 5 person limit with a nice 13' bonus perch. Our two largest walleye were 25". Great Day with my grandson and good friends. A big thanks to Mike, John, and Tim for joining Alex and I on the Saginaw Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somethin' fishy Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Thanks again for another great day on the bay Frank. It was a also a pleasure meeting your grandson Alex. You've been teaching him well and it shows. It's great to see kids working the boat and handling fish like he does! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_Catch_Her Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Great job Frank.I love to hear of people taking kids fishing. Keep it up.I'm curious, it sounds like you stuck with spinners and crawlers? I would have switched to hot 'n tots and crankbaits if they were feeding on minnows. If you don't mind sharing, what was working when the 'flurry' kicked in?

If you don't mind sharing, what was working when the 'flurry' kicked in?Feeding on minnows yes at some point but they were not suspended. We scraped every one of the fish off the bottom.Alex is 12 and is very good at netting and getting the boards off. I love to fish with kids.

Priority1 Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 Mike, You were a big help on the back of the boat. I will say the sugar buzz from that year old cupcake got you going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
