Stella and Mike - the PRO's are back in town...
Stella and Mike Wheat have released 293 walleye (which include two 23 1/2) in the past three days. Depths from 5 feet to 18 feet of water has been the norm. One thing that should be mentioned is that they don’t start fishing till 10 a.m. due to their laziness and their in by 4 p.m. for cocktails - truly acting like tourists!!!!!
Apparently MIke’s net was abducted by another gentleman in camp - only he knows who he is!!! Right Bill? Mike also went for a swim today - a swim that wasn’t planned as he slid right off the ramp.
Believe it or not the ol standard PINK jig is the key to their success. Many were also caught on an orange and brown 2” twister tail which replicates the mayfly. Mayfly hatch is strong today however Mike says didn’t affect fishing at all as he just adjusted his style of fishing. His miethod is to touch the bottom of the lake then let it sit an inch above the bottom, no jigging required. Location seems to be in the middle of the larger bays just off the rock piles in about 9 to 12 feet.
Judy’s cooking the steaks tonight - so its marguerita night - so tasty even in the plastic glass.
