Thanks for that input, Eyegetr. However, I’m not quite sure where you are getting your information about me from. I don’t ever remember saying that I caught over 300 walleyes down south last year. My...

Thanks for that input, Eyegetr. However, I’m not quite sure where you are getting your information about me from. I don’t ever remember saying that I caught over 300 walleyes down south last year. My...
Also, I headed back out there tonight, and didn’t do quite so well. I’m not normally the kind of guy that likes to sit and pound one spot day after day, because when you do that and the spot goes bad...
Okay, I’m up to four PMs regarding this report, and three of them were about the same thing, so I am going to just reply to all of them right here because I’m sure others are thinking the same thing...
Awesome fish! They call big smallmouths “footballs,” but it is rare to see a walleye where the name “football” actually makes sense. That is one fat fish. Congrats on the master angler award, and...
As the people who have been reading my reports already know, I haven’t been doing very well in my walleye fishing lately. However, the weather, wind, and water temps have finally been stable enough...
Would you mind sharing with me which of the ponds the encounter with the nice muskie was in? I’ve been looking for a place to get into some nice muskies that isn’t too far from home, but the options...
I am using a 16 foot boat with a 40 hp tiller motor, and I have no problem fishing out on the main part of the Green Bay. I can often be found more than 10 miles from where I launch. I do try to...
Your report sure sounds a lot like the P.M. that you just sent me. Don’t worry; those 40 inchers will be in there before ya know it just like you told me in that P.M. It sounds like you had an...
Well, the walleye fishing in the Ford River area hasn’t improved any for me over the last couple weeks. It is still very slow. The one thing that I have noticed is that the shallow water seems to out...
Thanks for the reply, raywriter. That is some good information. I always thought that the weeds at Black Bottom looked pikey, but I have never caught one there while fishing for walleyes like I have...
The walleye fishing hasn’t been any better than the salmon, at least not for a novice like myself. I went out of the Ford yesterday and fished for about 4 hours. All I caught was one 26 inch walleye...
With all of the rain lately, the water level in the Ford is way up, so there really aren’t any hazards that I am aware of in the river. There used to be one giant rock that worried me, but that...
Hey guys,
With all of the storms lately, my walleye fishing has been kind of tough to do. I just don’t have the guts to run ten miles south of the Ford in a 16.5 foot tiller when there are storms...
Sounds like you guys had fun. I’m glad to finally see a report from someone who was fishing in that area. The last few times I’ve been out of the Ford there have been several boats right out at the...
Well, to answer your question, I have fished there both at night and in the daytime. However, this year I haven’t tried the night fishing yet. I have been pretty much going out at around 6:00 and...
I’ve been playing around fishing walleyes in the Stonington area this year and am pretty impressed by what I’ve seen. I would always prefer to fish for big walleyes rather than the little dinks in...
That’s funny; I was just bass fishing at the Esky a couple days ago and saw a couple of guys nailing big crappies like you wouldn’t believe. I wonder who that could have been . . . :rolleyes:

Okay, maybe I should rephrase that to “trophies” You know, the kind that are bigger than anything that I’ve ever caught down there. You’re right, 25 inchers are hawgs. The thing is, 25 inchers really...
Well, my dad, my grandpa, and myself headed out in the rain last light. The original plan was to go out of the Ford, but we decided to stay a little closer to home for fear of lightning. Instead, we...
Congrats again, Rambler! Sounds like you had a good time at the Ford. Did you get any real hawgs like last time or just the standard 25 and 26 inchers?
Things have slowed down a little bit at the Ford over the last couple times I’ve been there. The fish seem to have moved a little further south, and don’t seem to be quite as active as they were a...
Yeah, Rambler, some old people are great like that. One of my grandpas is a prime example of that. He is 84 years old and tries as hard as he can to keep up with all of the modern technology. He has...
Well, Rambler, I would say that north winds/cold fronts are some of the most difficult situations you could face on this bay, but it sounds like you already know that. When the north wind blows like...
Rambler, are you kidding me? I’ve fished down that way for a couple of years and probably pulled over 200 walleyes out of there, and I have never seen anything over 28 inches caught. I’ve caught...
Well, I’m no expert on the subject, and there are a lot of people out there that could answer this question better than me. However, from my experience, it seems like any wind that pounds that shore...
