Hi everyone,

Got a late start today. Fished with my bud Steve who just bought a new boat this past winter and asked me to help him break it in right. we got out at 3 in the afternoon and fished in a steady rain/drizzle for half the time out there. When the rain stopped, the wind picked up from thre East, but not real strong. By 8 we had boated Bluegill,perch and walleyes.

We used leeches and minnows, but all the fish came on jigs tipped with minnows. Had the bobber rod out too but nothing touched it all afternoon. The hits were all very light. The fish would just stop the jig, but not pull. Actually set the hook by just jigging. We fished the deep wood all afternoon and heard about the crappies being caught shallow. We did noit catch a crappie out in the deep wood. Will try the shallows for crappies tommorow. Good luck fishing everyone.
